The volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the curves $\displaystyle{y}=\sqrt{{{25}-{{x}}^{{2}}}},{y}={0},{x}={2},{x}={4}$ , about x axis, can be evaluated using the washer method.

$\displaystyle{V}={\int_{{a}}^{{b}}}\pi\cdot{\left({{f}}^{{2}}{\left({x}\right)}-{{g}}^{{2}}{\left({x}\right)}\right)}{\left.{d}{x}\right.},{f{{\left({x}\right)}}}>{g{{\left({x}\right)}}}$

Since the problem provides you the endpoints $\displaystyle{x}={2},{x}={4}$ , you may find the volume such that:

$\displaystyle{V}={\int_{{2}}^{{4}}}\pi\cdot{{\left(\sqrt{{{25}-{{x}}^{{2}}}}-{0}\right)}}^{{2}}{\left.{d}{x}\right.}$

$\displaystyle{V}=\pi\cdot{\int_{{2}}^{{4}}}{\left({25}-{{x}}^{{2}}\right)}{\left.{d}{x}\right.}$

$\displaystyle{V}=\pi\cdot{\left({\int_{{2}}^{{4}}}{25}{\left.{d}{x}\right.}-{\int_{{2}}^{{4}}}{{x}}^{{2}}{\left.{d}{x}\right.}\right)}$

$\displaystyle{V}=\pi\cdot{\left({25}{x}-\frac{{{x}}^{{3}}}{{3}}\right)}{{\mid}_{{2}}^{{4}}}$

V $\displaystyle=\pi\cdot{\left({25}\cdot{4}-\frac{{{4}}^{{3}}}{{3}}-{25}\cdot{2}+\frac{{{2}}^{{3}}}{{3}}\right)}$

$\displaystyle{V}=\pi\cdot{\left({50}-\frac{{56}}{{3}}\right)}$

$\displaystyle{V}=\pi\cdot\frac{{{150}-{56}}}{{3}}$

$\displaystyle{V}=\frac{{{94}\cdot\pi}}{{3}}$

Hence, evaluating the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the curves $\displaystyle{y}=\sqrt{{{25}-{{x}}^{{2}}}},{y}={0},{x}={2},{x}={4},$ about x axis , using the washer method, yields $\displaystyle{V}=\frac{{{94}\cdot\pi}}{{3}}$ .
