How do i find the volume? Thanks in advance

Here is the translation:
The picture shows a street lamp. In Figure 4, a cross-section through the middle of the lamp is embedded in a
coordinate system.

The shaded part of the figure is delimited by the graphs for the functions and g and the coordinate axes. The
two functions are given by the regulations:
Both in the picture

All measurements are in centimeters.

a) Determine the height of the lamp, see figure 4. (Done)
b) Determine at which point the graph of has a tangent with slope -1/2. (Done)

The lamp can be described by the body of revolution that appears by rotating the tinted
area 360° around the y-axis.

c) Determine the volume of the lamp. (Im at c now)

The only thing i know to start with is this (2nd Picture)

oh wait you dont need either

#

so, the thing is rotated about the y axis

#

you simply want the uhhhh

#

distance from the y axis at each segment, then thats the value of x in the 2nd image you put there

#

I found the height to be 50. Is that the value of x?

#

is that what you mean?

#

@hollow plover Was that what you meant?

hollow plover
#

oh

#

the height is

#

thats your bounds of integration
