Hello MHB,
1y4d39.jpg

So when I change to space polar I Dont understand how facit got $$\frac{\pi}{4} \leq \theta \leq \frac{\pi}{2}$$
Regards,
$$|\pi\rangle$$

$$\int\int\int_D(x^2y^2z)dxdydz$$
where D is $$D={(x,y,z);0\leq z \leq \sqrt{x^2+y^2}, x^2+y^2+z^2 \leq 1}$$

Re: Triple integral, spherical cordinates

Hint:
$$\left \{ \begin{matrix} z=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}\\x^2+y^2+z^2=1\end{matrix}\right.\Rightarrow \left \{ \begin{matrix} z^2=x^2+y^2\\x^2+y^2+z^2=1\end{matrix}\right. \Rightarrow 2z^2=1\Rightarrow z=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$$

Could you please re-post the original problem? The tinypic image is not showing up for me.

$$z=\cos(\theta)P$$
what happened to P? I am somehow unsure with geting the integral limit

Re: Triple integral, spherical cordinates

Using the spherical coordinates:
$$P(r,\theta,\varphi)\qquad (0\leq r <+\infty,\;0\leq \varphi \leq 2\pi,\;0\leq \theta \leq \pi),$$
the equality $\sqrt{2}/2=1\cos \theta$ implies $\theta=\pi/4,$ so:
$$D\equiv \left \{ \begin{matrix} 0\leq \varphi \leq 2\pi& \\\pi/4\leq \theta\leq \pi/2\\0\leq r\leq 1\end{matrix}\right.$$
