The definition for volume element is simples, is ##dV=dxdydz##, ok. But, if you integrate this you'll have problems, because ##\int dV = \int dxdydx## no make sense in the right side of equation and, on the other hand, ##\iiint dV =\iiint dxdydx## no make sense in the left side of equation... so, this problem is eliminated if you define the volume element like ##d^3V = dxdydz##, now the tiple integral make sense: [tex]\iiint d^3V = \iiint dxdydz[/tex] However, to think if a quantity physical, in infinitesimal size, have simple, double, triple, ..., differential is non-intuitive, is a concept very analytical. But, ignore this information is metematically wrong.
So, which is correct form for deal with this?
