1. Use integration in spherical coordinates in order to obtain the general
formula for the volume of the ball of radius R.
Solution: The ball of radius R centered at the origin is given in
spherical coordinates by:
{(0, 6,0): 0S pS R050 < 27, 0S 9S 7}
Since this is a volume integral, we are integrating the function 1. The
Jacobian is p*sin 6. So we obtain the integral:

or finally2. Consider the following two solids: i) the ball of radius 2 centered at the
origin and i) the cone defined by the condition < 7/6 where d is the
spherical coordinate with the same symbol. ‘Their intersection looks
like an ice-cream cone, Use integration with spherical coordinates in
order to compute the volume of this intersection,
Solution: The given domain may be represented in spherical coordi-
nates as
