#|V|=19/30pi#

Explanation:

Given:
first curve
#x^2=y#
second curve
#y^2=x#
Solving for x and y
#x=0, and x=1#
which are the lower and upper limits parallel to the axis #y=-1#

radius of the circle on first curve is given by
#r_1=y-(-1)#
#r_1=y+1#
For #" "y=x^2#
#r_1=x^2+1#

Area of circular section is
#A_1=pir_1^2#
#A_1=pi(x^2+1)^2#
#A_1=pi(x^4+2x^2+1)#

radius of the circle on second curve is given by
#r_2=y-(-1)#
#r_2=y+1#
For #" "y=sqrtx#
#r_2=sqrtx+1#

Area of circular section is
#A_2=pir_1^2#
#A_2=pi(sqrtx+1)^2#
#A_2=pi(x+2sqrtx+1)#

For #0<=x<=1," " x^2>sqrt#
Area of the annular portion is
#A=A_1-A_2#
#A=pi(x^4+2x^2+1)-pi(x+2sqrtx+1)#
#A=pi(x^4+2x^2+1)-(x+2sqrtx+1)#
#A=pi(x^4+2x^2+1-x-2sqrtx-1)#
#A=pi(x^4+2x^2-x-2sqrtx)#

The volume enclosed by the annular portion for distance dx is

#dV=Adx#

#dV=pi(x^4+2x^2-x-2sqrtx)dx#

Integrating between the limits x=0 and x=1

#intdV=intpi(x^4+2x^2-x-2x^(1/2))dx#

#V=pi(1/(4+1)x^(4+1)+2/(2+1)x^(2+1)-1/(1+1)x^(1+1)-2/(1/2+1)x^(1/2+1))_0^1#

#V=pi(1/5x^5+2/3x^3-1/2x^2-2/(3/2)x^(3/2))_0^1#

#V=pi(1/5x^5+2/3x^3-1/2x^2-4/3x^(3/2))_0^1#
Substituting the limits and taking the difference

#V=pi(1/5+2/3-1/2-4/3)#

#V=pi(6+20-15-40)/30#

#V=(26-55)/30pi#
#V=-19/30pi#
#|V|=19/30pi#
