| Topic | Volumes of Revolution |
| Type | Volume with implicit or parametric curves |
| Difficulty | Challenging +1.2 This is a structured parametric volume of revolution question with clear guidance. Part (a) requires finding constants from boundary conditions (routine). Part (b) involves parametric volume integration with standard trigonometric identities—methodical but requires careful algebraic manipulation over multiple steps. Part (c) is a straightforward modeling critique. While it's a substantial multi-part question worth several marks, the techniques are standard Core Pure 2 material with no novel insights required, making it moderately above average difficulty. |

Figure 1 shows the central vertical cross-section $A B C D E F A$ of a vase together with measurements that have been taken from the vase.
The horizontal cross-section between $A B$ and $F C$ is a circle with diameter 4 cm .\\
The base of the vase $E D$ is horizontal and the point $E$ is vertically below $F$ and the point $D$ is vertically below $C$.
Using these measurements, the curve $C D$ is modelled by the parametric equations
$$x = a + 3 \sin 2 t \quad y = b \cos t \quad 0 \leqslant t \leqslant \frac { \pi } { 2 }$$
where $a$ and $b$ are constants and $O$ is the fixed origin, as shown in Figure 2.
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\alph*)]
\item Determine the value of $a$ and the value of $b$ according to the model.
\item Using algebraic integration and showing all your working, determine, according to the model, the volume of the vase, giving your answer to the nearest $\mathrm { cm } ^ { 3 }$
\item State a limitation of the model.
