A cylindrical glass of radius r and height L is filled with water and then tilted until the water remaining in the glass exactly covers its base.
(a) Determine a way to “slice” the water into parallel rectangular cross-sections and then set up a definite
(b) Determine a way to “slice” the water into parallel cross-sections that are trapezoids and then set up a definite integral for the volume of the water.
(c) Find the volume of water in the glass by evaluating one of the integrals in part (a) or part (b).
(d) Find the volume of the water in the glass from purely geometric considerations.
(e) Suppose the glass is tilted until the water exactly covers half the base. In what direction can you “slice” the water into triangular cross-sections? Rectangular cross-sections? Cross-sections that are segments of circles? Find the volume of water in the glass.
