I have to calculate the double integral given below.

Homework Equations



D√(x2 +y2) dxdy,D=x2+y2≤2x

The Attempt at a Solution



How can i calculate the limits from the give inequality to calculate the value of the given double integral?

Waiting for a kind response.

Thanks in advance

Hi Tayyabah! Welcome to PF! :smile:

(I see you've discovered how to start a thread! :wink:)

first, describe (in words) the shape of D

(that should help you with the limits … alternatively, you may find that a change of coordinates would make it easier :wink:)
 
Thanks a bunch for prompt response.

If a modify the inequality representing D, it gets the following form

(x-1)2+y2≤ 1

Which means (If i am not wrong) D is representing the interior of a circle centered at (1,0) and having radius equal to 1.

That's right! :smile:

ok, now either have limits of x going from 0 to 2, and y as a function of x,

or y going from -1 to 0, and x as a function of y …

what do you get? :smile:
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
