consider a torus whose equation in terms of spherical coordinates(r,\theta,\phi) is r=2sin\phi for 0\le\phi\le2\Pi. determine the mass of the region bounded by the torus if the density is given by \rho=\phi.

Since you chose not to show any attempt to do this yourself, it is difficult to know what advice would help. Do you, at least, know that the volume of a torus given by r= f(\theta, \phi) is \int_{\theta= 0}^{2\pi}\int_{\phi= 0}^{2\pi}\int_0^{f(\theta, \phi)} r^2 sin(\theta)drd\theta d\phi and so the mass of such an object with density given by \rho(r,\theta, \phi) is \int_{\theta= 0}^{2\pi}\int_{\phi= 0}^{2\pi}\int_0^{f(\theta, \phi)}\rho(r,\theta,\phi) r^2 sin(\theta)drd\theta d\phi?

For original Zeta function, ζ(s)=1+1/2^s+1/3^s+1/4^s+... =1+e^(-slog2)+e^(-slog3)+e^(-slog4)+... , Re(s)>1 Riemann extended the Zeta function to the region where s≠1 using analytical extension. New Zeta function is in the form of contour integration, which appears simple but is actually more inconvenient to analyze than the original Zeta function. The original Zeta function already contains all the information about the distribution of prime numbers. So we only handle with original Zeta...
