    Bounded Solid

SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on evaluating the volume of a solid bounded above by the sphere defined by the equation (x²) + (y²) + (z²) = 9 and laterally by the cylinder defined by (x²) + (y²) = 4x. Participants clarify that the solid is indeed located below the sphere, and they emphasize the importance of accurately sketching the intersection of these two shapes in the xy-plane to understand the volume calculation. The correct setup involves using cylindrical coordinates and integrating over the defined region.

PREREQUISITES
  • Cylindrical coordinates
  • Volume integration techniques
  • Understanding of spherical equations
  • Graphical interpretation of 3D shapes
NEXT STEPS
  • Learn how to set up integrals in cylindrical coordinates for volume calculations
  • Study the intersection of surfaces in 3D geometry
  • Explore the use of polar coordinates in volume integration
  • Practice sketching 3D solids and their projections in 2D
USEFUL FOR

Students and educators in calculus, particularly those focusing on multivariable calculus and volume calculations, as well as anyone involved in geometric modeling and visualization.

I think you need some face-to-face time with your teacher. I gather that English isn't your first language, but still, you don't seem to be understanding anything we are trying to tell you.

I agree completely. We are more than 30 posts into this problem, and you still don't understand what the solid looks like, despite multiple graphs and explanations from LCKurtz and me.

sorry , after looking it carefully ,the solid formed is the red part ? (refer to the attachment)
So , the red part represent the projection to xy plane ?

You have errors in your work. But you are supposed to do it in cylindrical coordinates anyway. You need ##dz,~dr,~d\theta## variables in your integrals.
