Find average velocity of a sphere which expands and moves

In summary, the conversation discusses finding the average velocity of a shell as it moves and expands. The equation for average velocity is determined to be the sum of the maximum and minimum velocities divided by two. The concept of energy for the shell is also discussed, with the conclusion that the kinetic energy must be calculated separately for each element and then integrated. The conversation also delves into integrating sin and cos functions, with the reminder to always integrate in the correct order of increasing variable value.

Ok yeah yeah you are right.Is that all thing somy equatipn is true If I change r to v ?
There are some more errors. The m at the front should be ##\rho r^2##, where ##\rho## is the density. There should be a factor ##\sin(\theta)## inside the integral (or maybe it's ##\sin(\theta)##, whichever goes from 0 to ##\pi##). This comes from the polar expression for an area element.

ρr2((v')2+v^2+2π^2)+ integral sinθ from 0 to π

Better, but that 2π^2 term shouldn't be there. Previously, every term had a factor of either v or v', so that should remain true. Instead, I would expect to see a factor π throughout. Please post all your steps.

We're in different timezones, I'm sure. But I did reply to your post #72. Can you not see my reply?

Hi I see your post but I couldn't answer cause I am in holiday now and here time is 07:20 am. In this post you said ##\sin(\theta)## will be inside the integral but theta goes 0 to pi so here I am confused and I ll going to write pr^2 instead of m ?

In your integrand you have trig functions of phi and theta. But you must have put the area element as ##m d\theta d\phi##. The area element should have been ##\rho r^2 \sin(\theta)d\theta\phi##. After simplifying the rest of the integrand, you still have one term left that has trig functions in it. You must multiply the sin from the element with this before integrating it.
This will be a lot easier to explain if you post all your steps as typed equations. Please stop posting images of working, they're too hard to read and too hard to make comments about.

I made a mistake in there.Can you write the correct one and send me like this url then I can work on it

http://www.HostMath.com/Show.aspx?IsAsc=True&Code=\int_{0}^{\pi}\int_{0}^{2\pi}(v\cos\theta\sin\phi+v')^2+(v\sin\theta\sin\phi)^2+(v\cos\phi)^2+\int_{0}^{\pi}pr^2\sin\thetad\theta\phi look
##\int_{0}^{\pi}\int_{0}^{2\pi}(v\cos\theta\sin\phi+v')^2+(v\sin\theta\sin\phi)^2+(v\cos\phi)^2+\int_{0}^{\pi}pr^2\sin\theta d\theta\phi##
That equation makes no sense syntactically. It should read
##\int_{\theta=0}^{\pi}\int_{\phi=0}^{2\pi}((v\cos\theta\sin\phi+v')^2+(v\sin\theta\sin\phi)^2+(v\cos\phi)^2)\rho r^2\sin\theta d\theta d\phi##

Yeah I noticed that pr^2 must be inside the integral I noticed it after I wrote the equation
 
  • #82
Can you check the integral again I think there's a wrong something

Wrong in my version? I don't see anything - please be more specific.

Theres two integral first one belongs theta second phi but then end you wrote d theta phi
 
  • #85
I find 2pr2((v')2)+2πv2)

It's a double integral. Have you not dealt with double integrals before?

No

It's wrong. Please post all your steps.

Can dtheta and dphi change sides

Quarlep said:

Do you mean, can they be in either order? Yes. It's the order of the integral signs that defines the order of integration (inside first).

I am in holiday I am not working in computer so I can't write all steps to you right now.We will do first integral (the one which is inside) that's phi but there wrote dtheta so I asked you this

Can you tell me what was that please the only thing I ll do is put it on program

Sorry, I don't understand what you are asking.

Do you simply want the answer to the original question, by whatever means, or do you specifically want to see how to do it through an elaborate double integral?
 
  • #97
I want to see answer to the original question

I am working on symbolab but I found nothing

Then use my symmetry method. It gets rid of the trig terms and makes the integral trivial.

I was banned so I couldn't answer over a 10 days I found 4p(pi)r^2((v'^2)+v^2)

I think it should be exactly half that.
Note that the factor outside the parentheses is just the mass.

Thank you so much. Problem is solved now.
