Answer

$4$

Work Step by Step

Area $=\pi r^2=\pi (\sqrt {\cos (\pi y/4)})^2=\pi \cos (\pi y /4)$ We integrate the integral to calculate the volume as follows: $V= \pi \int_{-2}^{0} \cos (\pi y /4) dy$ Now, $V= \pi [(4/pi) \sin (\pi y/4)]_{-2}^{0}$ or, $=4 [\sin (0) -\sin (\dfrac{-\pi}{2})]$ $V=4$
