Solid Of Revolution
In geometry, a solid of revolution is a Solid geometry, solid figure obtained by rotating a plane figure around some straight line (the ''axis of revolution''), which may not Intersection (geometry), intersect the generatrix (except at its boundary). The Surface (mathematics), surface created by this revolution and which bounds the solid is the ''surface of revolution''. Assuming that the curve does not cross the axis, the solid's volume is equal to the length of the circle described by the figure's centroid multiplied by the figure's area (Pappus's centroid theorem, Pappus's second centroid theorem). A representative disc is a three-dimensional volume element of a solid of revolution. The element is created by rotating a line segment (of length ) around some axis (located units away), so that a cylinder (geometry), cylindrical volume of units is enclosed. Finding the volume Two common methods for finding the volume of a solid of revolution are the Disc integration, disc met ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Pappus's Centroid Theorem
In mathematics, Pappus's centroid theorem (also known as the Guldinus theorem, Pappus–Guldinus theorem or Pappus's theorem) is either of two related theorems dealing with the surface areas and volumes of surfaces and solids of revolution. The theorems are attributed to Pappus of Alexandria and Paul Guldin. Pappus's statement of this theorem appears in print for the first time in 1659, but it was known before, by Kepler in 1615 and by Guldin in 1640. The first theorem The first theorem states that the surface area ''A'' of a surface of revolution generated by rotating a plane curve ''C'' about an axis external to ''C'' and on the same plane is equal to the product of the arc length ''s'' of ''C'' and the distance ''d'' traveled by the geometric centroid of ''C'': A = sd. For example, the surface area of the torus with minor radius ''r'' and major radius ''R'' is A = (2\pi r)(2\pi R) = 4\pi^2 R r. Proof A curve given by the positive function f(x) is bounded by two points ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cross Product
In mathematics, the cross product or vector product (occasionally directed area product, to emphasize its geometric significance) is a binary operation on two vectors in a three-dimensional oriented Euclidean vector space (named here E), and is denoted by the symbol \times. Given two linearly independent vectors and , the cross product, (read "a cross b"), is a vector that is perpendicular to both and , and thus normal to the plane containing them. It has many applications in mathematics, physics, engineering, and computer programming. It should not be confused with the dot product (projection product). The magnitude of the cross product equals the area of a parallelogram with the vectors for sides; in particular, the magnitude of the product of two perpendicular vectors is the product of their lengths. The units of the cross-product are the product of the units of each vector. If two vectors are parallel or are anti-parallel (that is, they are linearly dependent), ...

Surface Integral
In mathematics, particularly multivariable calculus, a surface integral is a generalization of multiple integrals to integration over surfaces. It can be thought of as the double integral analogue of the line integral. Given a surface, one may integrate over this surface a scalar field (that is, a function of position which returns a scalar as a value), or a vector field (that is, a function which returns a vector as value). If a region R is not flat, then it is called a ''surface'' as shown in the illustration. Surface integrals have applications in physics, particularly in the classical theories of electromagnetism and fluid mechanics. Surface integrals of scalar fields Assume that ''f'' is a scalar, vector, or tensor field defined on a surface ''S''. To find an explicit formula for the surface integral of ''f'' over ''S'', we need to parameterize ''S'' by defining a system of curvilinear coordinates on ''S'', like the latitude and longitude on a sphere ...

Parametric Equation
In mathematics, a parametric equation expresses several quantities, such as the coordinates of a point (mathematics), point, as Function (mathematics), functions of one or several variable (mathematics), variables called parameters. In the case of a single parameter, parametric equations are commonly used to express the trajectory of a moving point, in which case, the parameter is often, but not necessarily, time, and the point describes a curve, called a parametric curve. In the case of two parameters, the point describes a Surface (mathematics), surface, called a parametric surface. In all cases, the equations are collectively called a parametric representation, or parametric system, or parameterization (also spelled parametrization, parametrisation) of the object. For example, the equations \begin x &= \cos t \\ y &= \sin t \end form a parametric representation of the unit circle, where is the parameter: A point is on the unit circle if and only if there is a value of ...

Fubini's Theorem
In mathematical analysis, Fubini's theorem characterizes the conditions under which it is possible to compute a double integral by using an iterated integral. It was introduced by Guido Fubini in 1907. The theorem states that if a function is Lebesgue integrable on a rectangle X\times Y, then one can evaluate the double integral as an iterated integral:\, \iint\limits_ f(x,y)\,\text(x,y) = \int_X\left(\int_Y f(x,y)\,\texty\right)\textx=\int_Y\left(\int_X f(x,y) \, \textx \right) \texty. This formula is generally not true for the Riemann integral, but it is true if the function is continuous on the rectangle. In multivariable calculus, this weaker result is sometimes also called Fubini's theorem, although it was already known by Leonhard Euler. Tonelli's theorem, introduced by Leonida Tonelli in 1909, is similar but is applied to a non-negative measurable function rather than to an integrable function over its domain. The Fubini and Tonelli theorems are usually combined and for ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cylindrical Coordinates
A cylinder () has traditionally been a three-dimensional solid, one of the most basic of curvilinear geometric shapes. In elementary geometry, it is considered a prism with a circle as its base. A cylinder may also be defined as an infinite curvilinear surface in various modern branches of geometry and topology. The shift in the basic meaning—solid versus surface (as in a solid ball versus sphere surface)—has created some ambiguity with terminology. The two concepts may be distinguished by referring to solid cylinders and cylindrical surfaces. In the literature the unadorned term "cylinder" could refer to either of these or to an even more specialized object, the '' right circular cylinder''. Types The definitions and results in this section are taken from the 1913 text ''Plane and Solid Geometry'' by George A. Wentworth and David Eugene Smith .

Triple Integral
In mathematics (specifically multivariable calculus), a multiple integral is a definite integral of a function of several real variables, for instance, or . Integrals of a function of two variables over a region in \mathbb^2 (the real-number plane) are called double integrals, and integrals of a function of three variables over a region in \mathbb^3 (real-number 3D space) are called triple integrals. For repeated antidifferentiation of a single-variable function, see the Cauchy formula for repeated integration. Introduction Just as the definite integral of a positive function of one variable represents the area of the region between the graph of the function and the -axis, the double integral of a positive function of two variables represents the volume of the region between the surface defined by the function (on the three-dimensional Cartesian plane where ) and the plane which contains its domain. If there are more variables, a multiple integral will yield hypervolumes ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Shell Integration
Shell integration (the shell method in integral calculus) is a method for calculating the volume of a solid of revolution, when integrating along an axis ''perpendicular to'' the axis of revolution. This is in contrast to disc integration which integrates along the axis ''parallel'' to the axis of revolution. Definition The shell method goes as follows: Consider a volume in three dimensions obtained by rotating a cross-section in the -plane around the -axis. Suppose the cross-section is defined by the graph of the positive function on the interval . Then the formula for the volume will be: :2 \pi \int_a^b x f(x)\, dx If the function is of the coordinate and the axis of rotation is the -axis then the formula becomes: :2 \pi \int_a^b y f(y)\, dy If the function is rotating around the line then the formula becomes: :\begin \displaystyle 2 \pi \int_a^b (x-h) f(x)\,dx, & \text\ h \le a < b\\ \displaystyle 2 \pi \int_a^b (h-x) f(x)\,dx, & \text\ a < b \le h, \end ...

Disc Integration
Disc integration, also known in integral calculus as the disc method, is a method for calculating the volume of a solid of revolution of a solid-state material when integrating along an axis "parallel" to the axis of revolution. This method models the resulting three-dimensional shape as a stack of an infinite number of discs of varying radius and infinitesimal thickness. It is also possible to use the same principles with rings instead of discs (the "washer method") to obtain hollow solids of revolutions. This is in contrast to shell integration, that integrates along an axis ''perpendicular'' to the axis of revolution. Definition Function of If the function to be revolved is a function of , the following integral represents the volume of the solid of revolution: :\pi\int_a^b R(x)^2\,dx where is the distance between the function and the axis of rotation. This works only if the axis of rotation is horizontal (example: or some other constant). Function of If the function ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
