Use a triple integral to find the volume of the solid shown in the figure.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[z = 64 −x ^{2} − y ^{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Any hints or help is welcome.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are*

OpenStudy (loser66):

I saw this problem , just don't have time to review. if you just want a hint, I can!! change to polar system to \(\rho ~~\phi ~~\theta\) don't forget jacobian number

OpenStudy (loser66):

hey, camoJAX. I remember when I took cal3, you were at the same level with me. Why are you asking the same thing which we studied 1 year ago?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I wasn't doing Cal3 a year ago, DiffEq yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ V=\iiint dV \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ 0<z<64-x^2-y^2 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the problem I have is I can never understand where the integrals should start or end

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well your boundaries should look like \[ f_1(x,y)<z<f_2(x,y)\\ g_1(x)<y<g_2(x)\\ a<x<b \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In this case, because the 3D solid is z simple. It's 2d projection onto xy is y simple

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the order is z, y, x. You could also do z, x, y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hard to tell what the radius of the circle on the bottom is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

an educated guess would be 8. if that's the case: \[\int\limits_{-8}^{8}\int\limits_{-\sqrt{64 - x^2}}^{\sqrt{64 - x^2}}\int\limits_{0}^{64 - x^2 - y^2}dzdydx\] and you start from the inside out, so dz, dy then dx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's confusing me also

OpenStudy (anonymous):

makes sense. when y or x = 0, the other one would be 8. so it's 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea that does

OpenStudy (anonymous):

at z = 0*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

another way to look at this is with spherical coordinates. and it is actually simpler. however it really requires theory that is taught by a teacher or a textbook. if you have some knowledge of it i can set it up though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I honestly have no knowledge of it but I still would like to know if you don't mind

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you will definitely learn it in class ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha okay thanks
