Triple Integrals: Solving G Bounded by x, 2-x, and y^2

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around solving the triple integral ∫∫∫_G (xy + xz) dx dy dz, where G is bounded by z=x, z=2-x, and z=y^2. The user identifies the x bounds as 1 to 2 and suggests that the z lower bound is zero, with the upper bound being y^2. For the y bounds, they propose that y ranges from √x to √(2-x). Another participant advises starting the integration with respect to x while keeping z constant and provides a graph to clarify the limits. The conversation emphasizes the complexity of the integration process given the defined boundaries.

\int \int \int_{G} (xy + xz) dx dy dz
G bounded by z=x, z= 2-x, and z = y^2

solving the first 2 i get x =1

equating y^2 = z =x and y^2 = 2-x
so x can go from 1 to 2?
not sure how to proceed for the y part, however..

please helppppp
 
Physics news on Phys.org
so far i got the x lower boun to be 1 and upper boun to be 2

i (think) that the z lower bound is zero and upper bound is y^2

also the y lower boun would be root x and upper bound would be root (2-x)


is this correct??
Integrating would be a real bugger in this case

please help!
 
Try integrating dx first, with z constant. I've attached a graph to help you figure out the limits. Set your constraints in terms of x= and y=

The thin slant is z=2-x, the plane is z=x and the parabola is obviously z=y^2

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'
Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
