Answer

$$\frac{3}{5}$$

Work Step by Step

Solve to x $$ y^{1 / 3}=x $$ The volume is $\int_{a}^{b} A(y) d y$ The cross sections are squares with base $y^{1 / 3}=x$ Thus, $y^{2 / 3}=\left(y^{1 / 3}\right)^{2}=A(y)$ The integral part of the volume is $\int_{0}^{1} y^{2 / 3} d y$ $$ \begin{array}{c} {\left[\frac{3}{5} y^{5 / 3}\right]_{0}^{1}} \\ \frac{3}{5}=\frac{3}{5}(1)^{5 / 3}-\frac{3}{5}(0)^{5 / 3} \end{array} $$
