    How Do You Integrate Over an Octant for \(\frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}\)?

    Interesting...that's sounds like something worth pursuing, thanks for the help!

    How Do You Integrate Over an Octant for \(\frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}\)?

    It's a cube with side length 3, I was just considering one octant.

    How Do You Integrate Over an Octant for \(\frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}\)?

    no, it was to find the time averaged power inside a box produced by light bulb in the center. This is a by product of assuming spherical wave propagation from the center of the box.

    How Do You Integrate Over an Octant for \(\frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}\)?

    Yes, but then I get to \int^{1.5}_{0}\int^{1.5}_{0}\frac{ArcTan(\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{y^2+z^2}})}{\sqrt{y^2+z^2}}dydz and get stuck.

    How Do You Integrate Over an Octant for \(\frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}\)?

    \int^{1.5}_{0}\int^{1.5}_{0}\int^{1.5}_{0}\frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}dxdydz I tried converting this to spherical and only integrating over a quarter of the octant but with no luck. Can someone please point me in the right direction. Thanks!
