How to find the function of a surface
Let’s say we have $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$ in range $\,x\in[0,5]\,$ and we revolved around the $x$-axis what would the function $z=z(x,y)$ of this new surface? How can I find this surface?
I have the volume of ...

Is there a way to modify the solid of revolution integral to allow for solids of increasing and decreasing radius?
I am doing a project on tori as they relate to pool floaties and the volume of a normal torus can be calculated by the solids of revolution integral on a circle, Is there a way to modify the integral ...

On Surfaces of Revolution With Any Two Relations in $\Bbb R^2$ Such that One is the Axis (g) and the Other Revolves (f) defined by z=Rev[f(x),g(x)]:
For the last few years, I have tried a couple times to solve this problem that I came up with. Even though this may seem like a nonsensical idea, there is still a seed of wonder embedded into it.
This ...

Limits for the parameters of the parametric equation of a surface of revolution
According to Lipschutz's Differential Geometry book,
A surface of revolution $S$ is obtained by revolving a plane curve $C$ (the profile curve) about a line $L$ (the axis of $S$) in its plane. If $x_{...

Surface Area of Revolution around y=x
Consider the curve $x=-t^2$ , $y=\frac{t^3}{3}-t+1$ , $t\in[0,1]$. Find the surface area obtained by revolving the curve about the line $y=x$.
On my textbook there are formulas to find the surface ...
