Answer

$V = \int_1^2 {2\pi x\ln x} dx$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & y = \ln x,{\text{ }}y = 0,{\text{ }}x = 2,{\text{ about the }}y{\text{ - axis}} \cr & {\text{Find the intersection points with the }}x{\text{ - axis}} \cr & {\text{Let }}y = 0 \cr & \ln x = 0 \cr & x = 1 \cr & {\text{From the graph shown below}}{\text{, we can see that is easier apply}} \cr & {\text{the shell method about the }}y{\text{ - axis}}{\text{.}} \cr & V = \int_a^b {2\pi x} \left( {f\left( x \right) - g\left( x \right)} \right)dx \cr & {\text{Therefore}}{\text{,}} \cr & V = \int_1^2 {2\pi x\left( {\ln x - 0} \right)} dx \cr & V = \int_1^2 {2\pi x\ln x} dx \cr} $$
