I've been having some trouble identifying where my reasoning is wrong in this problem.
I have 2 premises:
$\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{-x^2} dx=\sqrt\pi=A $
$V=\int_{-\infty}^\infty\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{-x^2-y^2} dx dy=\pi $
Being A the area under the function $y=e^{-x^2}$
and V the volume under the function $z= e^{-x^2-y^2}$
$\downarrow$ $\mathbf {Here's\;the\;BIG\;error}$
So, if $e^{-x^2-y^2}$ is the solid of revolution of $e^{-x^2}$ and the volume of a revolution solid is equal to pi times the area of the section why isn't $V=\pi A$?
$\uparrow$ $\mathbf {Here's\;the\;BIG\;error}$
Where is the error?
Revolving around the $y$ axis gives $\pi\int_0^1 x^2dy=-\pi\int_0^1 \ln ydy=-\pi\left[y\ln y-y\right]_0^1=\pi.$
