The diagram shows the part of the curve \(y = \frac{8}{x} + 2x\) for \(x > 0\), and the minimum point \(M\).

(i) Find expressions for \(\frac{dy}{dx}\), \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) and \(\int y^2 \, dx\). [5]

(ii) Find the coordinates of \(M\) and determine the coordinates and nature of the stationary point on the part of the curve for which \(x < 0\). [5]

(iii) Find the volume obtained when the region bounded by the curve, the \(x\)-axis and the lines \(x = 1\) and \(x = 2\) is rotated through 360° about the \(x\)-axis. [2]
