Question

Let W be the region in the plane lying below the graph of y = x
2 and above the x-axis,
for x between 0 and 2. Suppose that W is the base of a solid S whose cross-sections perpendicular to the
x-axis are semicircles. See diagram below.

Cross-section
(a) Find an expression A(x) for the area of the cross-section perpendicular to the x axis at coordinate x.
(b) Set up, but do not integrate, an integral representing the volume of S.
