Volume of Revolution.  A solid object is generated by rotating two functions about the x-axis. The created volume is determined by summing volumes of disks on the x-axis from a to b. The disk volume (at every x position) in turn is found by subtracting the inner disk volume from the outer disk volume. The two equations express the generated volume.

An example of rotation is a rotating MusicBox flywheel giving an illusion of a translucent solid object.
