Consider a cylinder with radius 1, lying on its side, 3 units long. Now, we'll be using an integral to calculate the volume of this cylinder by slicing it up into flat sections, as shown below. 1. What is the shape of each “slice”? 2. If we center the circular face at the origin, what is the equation for that circle? 3. If the cylinder is 3 units long, find the measurements of the slice at height y, for ye[-1,1].
