The base of a solid is a circle with radius 5. The cross sections of the solid perpendicular to a fixed diameter of the base are squares. If the circle is centered at the origin and the cross sections are perpendicular to the x-axis, find the area A(x) of the cross section at x.

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of volume of a solid and through integration calculate this volume, then:

[tex]V=\int\limits^5_{-5} {4({25-x})} \, dx \\[/tex]

In this way we will use the equation of the circle of radius 5 and then write this equation as a function of Y, this will be:

[tex]x^2+y^2=5^2\\y^2=25-x^2\\y=+\sqrt{25-x} \\[/tex]

Now to find the volume we will integrate as a function of Y, this will be:

[tex]V=\int\limits^5_{-5} {(2\sqrt{25-x})^2} \, dx \\V=\int\limits^5_{-5} {(4({25-x})} \, dx \\[/tex]
