In summary, the conversation is discussing two questions related to finding the volume of different shapes. The first question involves a sphere with a cut-out section and the second question involves a cone and cylinder. The main objective is to find the volume equation using integration or polar coordinates. The use of the divergence theorem is being questioned for the first question.

[URGENT]:How to solve this?

Do i need to use any theorem to solve this such as divergence theorem?

the first question need to find the volume of the sphere that a part in up and bottom being cut( z-axis) and the middle is a hole( cylindrical shape )

the second question need to find the volume of a cone with a cylinder.

for both question, the answer is not need completely solve, just need find the main equation for finding the volume.( I mean just find the range for integration by using dx,dy,dz or using polar coordinate )
Equation for finding volume equation using polar coordinate is prefered.

Why would divergence theorem be needed? For the first one, z = +- sqrt(j^2-x^2-y^2). Put this in a polar integral.

To solve for the volume of a sphere with a cut in the middle, you can use the integral form of the volume formula for a sphere, which is V = (4/3)πr^3. However, since there is a cylindrical hole in the middle, you will need to subtract the volume of the cylinder from the total volume of the sphere. The equation for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder. So, the final equation for the volume of the sphere with a cut and a cylindrical hole would be V = (4/3)πr^3 - πr^2h, where r is the radius of the sphere and h is the height of the cylinder.

To solve for the volume of a cone with a cylinder, you can use the same approach. The volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cone. So, the final equation for the volume of a cone with a cylinder would be V = (1/3)πr^2h + πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.

As for using the divergence theorem, it is not necessary for these problems as they can be solved using basic geometry and volume formulas. However, if you are familiar with the divergence theorem and would like to use it, you can apply it to find the volume of a sphere or cone with a cylindrical hole. The divergence theorem states that the volume of a solid can be found by integrating the divergence of its vector field over its boundary. This may be a more complex approach, but it can also be used to solve these types of problems.
 

FAQ: Solve Volume of Sphere & Cone w/ Cylinder | Urgent

What is the formula for finding the volume of a sphere?

The formula for finding the volume of a sphere is V = (4/3)πr^3, where V is the volume and r is the radius of the sphere.

How do I calculate the volume of a cone?

The formula for finding the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius of the base, and h is the height of the cone.

Can the volume of a cylinder be used to find the volume of a sphere or cone?

Yes, the volume of a cylinder can be used to find the volume of a sphere or cone by using the formula V = πr^2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius of the cylinder's base, and h is the height of the cylinder.

Why is it important to know how to calculate the volume of a sphere and cone?

Knowing how to calculate the volume of a sphere and cone is important for many fields in science, such as engineering, physics, and chemistry. It is also useful for everyday applications, such as calculating the volume of a container or the amount of liquid in a bottle.

Can you provide an example of using the volume of a sphere and cone in a real-life scenario?

Sure, one example could be calculating the volume of a snow cone at a food stand. The vendor would need to know the volume of the cone to determine how much flavored syrup and ice to use to fill the cone. They could also use the volume of the cone to determine how many cones they can make with a certain amount of syrup or ice.
