John digs a hole in his garden in order to make a pond.
The pond has a uniform horizontal cross section that is modelled by the curve with equation
where r is measured in centimetres.
The depth of the pond is 90 centimetres.
Water flows through a hosepipe into the pond at a rate of 50 litres per minute.
Given that the pond is initially empty,

Solutions based entirely on graphical or numerical methods are not acceptable.
Figure 1 shows a sketch of part of the curve with equation
y = arsinhx x 0
and the straight line with equation y = β The line and the curve intersect at the point with coordinates (α, β)
The finite region R, shown shaded in Figure 1, is bounded by the curve with equation y = arsinh x, the y-axis and the line with equation y = β
The region R is rotated through 2π radians about the y-axis.
