Evaluate the following integrals in spherical coordinates. $$\int_{0}^{\pi} \int_{0}^{\pi / 6} \int_{2 \sec \varphi}^{4} \rho^{2} \sin \varphi d \rho d \varphi d \theta$$
\(A\) thin plate is bounded by the graphs of \(y=e^{-x}, y=-e^{-x}, x=0,\) and \(x=L .\) Find its center of mass. How does the center of mass change as \(L \rightarrow \infty ?\)
General volume formulas Use integration to find the volume of the following solids. In each case, choose a convenient coordinate system, find equations for the bounding surfaces, set up a triple integral, and evaluate the integral. Assume that \(a, b, c, r, R,\) and \(h\) are positive constants. Spherical cap Find the volume of the cap of a sphere of radius \(R\) with thickness \(h\).
An important integral in statistics associated with the normal distribution is \(I=\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-x^{2}} d x .\) It is evaluated in the following steps. a. Assume that $$\begin{aligned} I^{2} &=\left(\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-x^{2}} d x\right)\left(\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-y^{2}} d y\right) \\ &=\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-x^{2}-y^{2}} d x d y \end{aligned}$$ where we have chosen the variables of integration to be \(x\) and \(y\) and then written the product as an iterated integral. Evaluate this integral in polar coordinates and show that \(I=\sqrt{\pi} .\) Why is the solution \(I=-\sqrt{\pi}\) rejected? b. Evaluate \(\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-x^{2}} d x, \int_{0}^{\infty} x e^{-x^{2}} d x,\) and \(\int_{0}^{\infty} x^{2} e^{-x^{2}} d x\) (using part (a) if needed).
