Problem

A solid has its base in the xyxy-plane and is bounded on the left by x=0x=0 and on the right by x=y2x=y^{2} for 0≤y≤40\le y\le 4. At each yy, the cross section perpendicular to the yy–axis is a semicircle whose diameter equals my2m y^{2}, where m>0m>0 is a constant. If the volume of the solid is 200π200\pi cubic units, determine the value of mm.
