MHB 15.5.63 - Rewrite triple integral in spherical coordinates

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on rewriting a triple integral in spherical coordinates for a specified region, with integrals expressed in the orders of dp, dθ, dφ and dθ, dp, dφ. Participants clarify the relationship between Cartesian and spherical coordinates, emphasizing the correct interpretation of the sphere's equation. The integral provided involves a continuous function f and includes a specific range for the variables. There is also a mathematical exploration of a polynomial equation, leading to the determination of coefficients a, b, and c. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding coordinate transformations in multivariable calculus.

Write interated integrals in spherical coordinates
for the following region in the orders
$dp \, d\theta \, d\phi$
and
$d\theta \, dp \, d\phi$
Sketch the region of integration. Assume that $f$ is continuous on the region
\begin{align*}\displaystyle
I_{63}&=\int_{0}^{2\pi}\int_{\pi/6}^{\pi/2}\int_{2\csc{\phi}}^{4}
f(\rho,\phi,\theta)\rho^2
\,d\rho \,d\phi \,d\theta\\
\end{align*}
The standard equation of Sphere is:

\begin{align*}\displaystyle
f(\rho,\phi,\theta)
&=(\rho - \rho_0)^2 + (\phi - \phi_0)^2 + (\theta - \theta_0)^2 = \alpha ^2
\end{align*}

ok kinda ? what the $\rho^2$ would do to this

ok assume the new iterated sets would be according to d? set.

this was the pick for the graph I just picked bView attachment 7314

Re: 15.5.63 triple int of f(\rho,\phi,\theta)\ph^2

You appear to be confusing the equation of a sphere in Cartesian coordinates, x^2+ y^2+ z^2= r^2, with the equation of a sphere in spherical coordinates, \rho= r.
 
Re: 15.5.63 triple int of f(\rho,\phi,\theta)\ph^2

\begin{align}\displaystyle
f_{12}&=(4s^2-as+5bs)+cs^2-d\\
&=40s^3+5s^2+s-20\\
&=-s^2-as+5bs+cs^2-40s^3-s-d=-20 \\
(s&=0) d=20\\
(s&=-1) -1+a-5b+c+40+1=0 \\
&a-5b+c=-40\\
(s&=1)-1+a+5b+c-40-1=0\\
&-a+5b+c =42\\
\therefore &c=2 \,b=8 \, a=1
\end{align}
