calc 3 help!!! use a triple integral to find the volume of the solid enclosed by the sphere x^2+y^2+z^2=2a^2 and the paraboloid az = x^2+y^2 (a>0)
first find the point of intersection of surfaces since x^2+y^2=az put in sphere equation az+z^2=2a^2 z^2+az-2a^2=0 solve above equation so z=a (from given situation the other root is neglected) now using z=a in any of the above given equations of surfaces x^2+y^2=a^2 using cylindrical coordinates since x^2+y^2=r^2 so
i hope you can do this integral if not let me know :)
@mickifree12 can you do this ?
not really, looking at this problem and a spherical coordinates one
would I treat a as a constant o.0
yes it is just a radius
I'm stuck =[
where ? in the integral? just integrate first with respect to z treat r as constant then integrate with respect to r (now treat it as variable) and then integrate with respect to thetha.
wait, I see what you did now, I was making your "plug az into az+z^2=2a^2" more complicated than it really was
I can't solve the z^2+az-2a^2=0 to the point where you got z=a
it is just quadratic equation let me solve it
oohhh that's why I didn't see it, I rarely use the quadratic equation to the point where I don't even know it my memory xP
ok here we have
got it now?
yes, I wasn't sure if I solve for Z or A, but... where are you getting these pictures from o.0?
i am typing in software known as Mathtype used for typing Maths .then take picture and upload here :)
aaawwww, I thought you somehow had a pdf of a book and it was done out in the book =[[
i use it because it is easy to use and Maths is readable like textbook format!
why are you neglecting that z=-2a?
look at the picture below
since it is bounded by sphere above and paraboloid below taking z=-2a we are going away from the reigion of our interest.
ok, so from x^2+y^2=r^2
would I make the x and y cos and sin?
do not need to do this will get complex .
we just needs bounds for r and thetha in polar integrals .
I thought when you convert to r and theta, you convert your x and y into cos and sin that way when you have something like x^2+y^2, when you convert them, it becomes simply 1
I don't exactly know spherical/cylindrical coordinates that well since my teacher just went over them
read these articles in your textbook.these are important.
did u solve the integral?
No, still trying to figure out this cylindrical coordinates right now
How did you know that d theta was from 0-2pi?
because x^2+y^2=a^2 is circle of radius r and for circle thetha goes from 0 to 2pi.
aaahh, doing the integral right now, just messed up and did the first integration with respect to r instead of z, reworking it now
for the final answer, would a still be present o.0?
yes it will be
I'm getting a super ugly integration right when I do my integration with respect to r
yes !
ok, just making sure I'm not completely off
is it....
[2a^2/3 - 1/3(2a^2-81)^(3/2) - (729/4)]2pi
no you made some mistake check it !:)
ggaarrrrrrr
after the first integration...
rsqrt(2a^2-r^2) - r^3/4?
after first integration u get rsqrt(2a^2-r^2) - r^3/a
yeah oops, accidentally wrote 4, instead of A
and then.... 2nd integration, before plugging in 0 and 9
-1/3 (2a^2-r^2)^(3/2) - r^4/4a
yes
after plugging in
here's where it gets ugly
-1/3 (2a^2-81)^(3/2) - 6561/36) - (-1/3 (2a^2))
after pluging in you should have 1/12(8sqrt(2)-7)a^3
ok let me do it
I'm currently redoing it, from that point
I'm still getting the same answer, unless you somehow did some factoring o.0
wait
@mickifree12
for dr is it 0-a o.0
this whole time I thought it said 0 to 9 -.-
yes
oh jeez ahahahah
i hope you can do it now :) best of luck for rest of ur studies.!
