Answer

The integral describes the volume of solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by $f(x)= \sqrt{\sin (x)},\ \ y=0, \ x=0,\ \ x=\pi $ about the $x$-axis.

Work Step by Step

Given $$ \pi \int_0^\pi \sin x d x$$ Compare the integral with $$V= \int_a^b f^2(x)dx $$ \begin{aligned} \pi \int_0^\pi \sin x d x&=\pi \int_0^\pi(\sqrt{\sin x})^2 d x \end{aligned} The integral describes the volume of solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by $f(x)= \sqrt{\sin (x)},\ \ y=0, \ x=0,\ \ x=\pi $ about the $x$-axis.
