Solids of Revolution

This script shows a 3-D plot of a curve revolved around a specified axis.

You are now following this Submission

This script prompts the user for two functions y1=f1(x) and y2=f2(x) and rotates the area between the two curves around a user-defined axis. Plotted is the region between the two curves and the 3-D solid generated by revolving the region around the axis. Caluclated are the volume and surface area of the resudlting solid, and the arc length of each curve.
