Let SS be the solid generated when the region in the first quadrant bounded by the curves y=xy = \sqrt{x} and y=x2y = x^{2} is revolved about the x–axis. (a) Determine the x–coordinates of the points where the two curves intersect in the first quadrant. (b) Write a single definite integral that gives the volume of SS. (c) Evaluate the integral found in part (b) to obtain the exact volume of SS.
