1. For the below-mentioned figure, conversion from cartesian coordinate ∭R f(x,y,z)dx dy

dz to cylindrical polar with coordinates p(ρ,∅,z) is given by ______

a) ∭R  f(ρ,∅,z) ρ dρ d∅ dz
*
b) ∭R f(ρ,∅,z) dρ d∅ dz
c) ∭R f(ρ,∅,z) ρ∅ dρ d∅ dz
*

d) ∭R f(ρ,∅,z) ρ2 dρ d∅ dz
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: From the figure we can write x=ρ cos ∅, y=ρ sin ∅, z=z
now we know that during change of variables f(x,y,z) is replaced by

f(ρ,∅,z)∗J(x,y,zρ,∅,z) with limits in functions of x,y,z to functions of ρ,∅,z respectively

J(x,y,zρ,∅,z)=∣∣∣∣∣∣∂x∂p∂y∂p∂z∂p∂x∂∅∂y∂∅∂z∂∅∂x∂z∂y∂z∂z∂z∣∣∣∣∣∣=∣∣∣∣cos∅sin∅0−psin

∅pcos∅0001∣∣∣∣=cos∅(ρcos∅)+ρsin∅(sin∅)
= ρ, thus ∭R f(x,y,z)dx dy dz = ∭R  f(ρ,∅,z) ρ dρ d∅ dz where R* is the new region.

View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: From the figure we can write x = r sin θ cos ∅, y = r sin θ sin ∅, z = r cos θ
now we know that during a change of variables f(x,y,z) is replaced

by f(ρ,∅,z)∗J(x,y,zρ,∅,z) with limits in functions of x,y,z to functions of r,θ,∅ respectively

J(x,y,zρ,∅,z)=∣∣∣∣∣∣∂x∂r∂y∂r∂z∂r∂x∂θ∂y∂θ∂z∂θ∂x∂∅∂y∂∅∂z∂∅∣∣∣∣∣∣=∣∣∣∣sinθcos∅sinθsin∅cosθrco

sθcos∅rcosθsin∅−rsinθ−rsinθsin∅rsinθcos∅0∣∣∣∣
= sin θ cos ∅(r2 sin2 θ cos⁡∅) + r cos θ cos ∅(r sin θ cos ∅ cos θ) – r sin θ sin ∅
= (-r sin2 θ sin⁡∅-r cos2 θ sin⁡∅)……on solving we get r2 sin⁡θ
thus ∭R f(x,y,z)dx dy dz = ∭R  f(r,θ,∅)r2 sin⁡θ dr dθ d∅ where R* is the new region.
*
3. If ∭R xyz dx dy dz is solved using cylindrical coordinate where R is the region bounded
by the planes x=0, y=0, z=0, z=1 & x2+y2=1 then what is the value of that integral?
a) 1/24
b) 1/16
c) 1/4
d) 1/2
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: x2+y2=1→ρ varies from 0 to 1 substituting x=ρ cos ∅, y=ρ sin ∅, z=z
z varies from 0 to1, x=0, y=0→∅ varies from 0 to π/2
thus the given integral is changed to cylindrical polar given by

∫π20∫10∫10cos∅sin∅ρ3zdzdρd∅=∫π20∫10cos∅sin∅ρ3[z22]10dρd∅

∫π20cos∅sin∅[ρ38]10d∅=∫π20cos∅sin∅18d∅

put sin ∅=t, dt=cos ∅

t varies from 0 to 1 ∫1018tdt=[t216]10=116.

4. The volume of the region R defined by inequalities 0≤z≤1, 0≤y+z≤2,0≤x+y+z≤3 is given

by ______
a) 4
b) 6
c) 8
d) 1
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: It is observed from equations that the region is made of parallelepiped thus
volume of parallelepiped is given by triple integral over the given region.
i.e by using substitutions as x+y+z=p, y+z=q, z=r the new region becomes R * where p
varies from 0 to 3, q varies from 0 to 2 & r varies from 0 to 1 jacobian of this transformation
is given by

J(p,q,rx,y,z)=∣∣∣∣∣∣∂p∂x∂q∂x∂r∂x∂p∂y∂q∂y∂r∂y∂p∂z∂q∂z∂r∂z∣∣∣∣∣∣=∣∣∣∣100110111∣∣∣∣=1(1)–

1(0)+1(0)=1

but we need J(x,y,zp,q,r)w.k.tJ(x,y,zp,q,r)J(p,q,rx,y,z)=1thusJ(x,y,zp,q,r)=1

now the volume is given by ∫10∫20∫30dpdqdr=∫10∫203dqdr=∫106dr=6.

5. What is the value of integral ∭Re(x2+y2+z2)32dxdydz where R is the region given by

x2+y2+z2≤1?
a) 4π(e−1)3
b) 4π(e3−1)3
c) 4π(e2+1)3
d) 8π(e+1)3
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: It can be noticed that R is the region bounded by sphere from the equation
x2+y2+z2≤1 thus we are using spherical coordinate to solve this problem
i.e clearly radius r varies from 0 to 1, θ varies from 0 to π & ∅ varies from 0 to 2π

thus the given integral changes to ∭R∗er21.5 r2 sin⁡θ dr dθ d∅

er21.5 is obtained by substituting x = r sin θ cos ∅, y = r sin θ sin ∅, z=r cos θ & hence solving
the same, now substituting R* we get

∫2π0∫π0∫10er21.5r2sinθdrdθd∅=∫2π0d∅∫π0sinθdθ∫10r2er3dr

2π∗[−cosθ]π0∗13[er3]r3=1r3=0=4π(e−1)3.
6. Evaluate ∫∫∫ 12y-8x dV in the region behind y=10-2z and bounded by z=2x, z=5 and x=0.
a) 1
b) 3563
c) 312516
d) 31256
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: We know
From the boundary conditions,
0 < y < 10-2z
0 < x < z2
0<z<5
Applying these limits on the Triple Integral as follows

∫∫∫10−2z012y−8xdydxdz
=∫∫π206(10−2z)2−8x(10−2z)dxdz
=∫5014z3−130z2+300zdz
=31256
Thus the answer is =31256.

7. Assume a planet having a radius R and its density is expressed as = R+r2rD′.

a) 5πD′R32
b) 4πD′R33
c) 5πD′R33
d) 5πD′R312
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: Consider the case of r=R
Then,
D=D’
Where D’ is the surface density of the planet
As D → ∞, r → 0
For finding the mass of the planet, we use the triple integration formula
M=∫∫∫ dV
Converting into spherical co-ordinates, we get

M=∫∫∫D′r2sinθR+r2rdrdθdθ
Applying the limits
0 to π
0 to 2π
0 to R
Solving the Triple Integral we get,
M=5πD′R33
Thus, the mass of the planet is 5πD′R33.

c) y [xtan(-1) (x)- 1⁄2 ln⁡(1+x2)]
d) x [ytan(-1) (y)- 1⁄2 ln⁡(1+y2)]
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: Add constant automatically

Given, ∫∫xx2+y2dxdy

∫x∫1x2+y2dydx=∫x1xtan−1(yx)dy=∫tan−1(yx)dy
∫tan−1(yx)dy=x∫tan−1(t)dt
Putting, x = tan(z),
We get, dz = sec2⁡(z)dz,

x∫ zsec2 (z)dz
By integration by parts,
x ∫ zsec2 (z)dz=x[ztan(z)-log⁡(sec⁡(z))]= x[ytan(-1) (y)- 1⁄2 ln⁡(1+y2)].
10. Find the ∫∫x3 y3 sin⁡(x)sin⁡(y) dxdy.
a) (x3 Cos(x) + 3x2 Sin(x) + 6xCos(x)-6Sin(x))(y3 Cos(y) + 3[y2 Sin(y) – 2[-yCos(y) + Sin(y)]])
b) (-x3 Cos(x) – 3x2 Sin(x) – 6xCos(x)-6Sin(x))(-y3 Cos(y) + 3[y2 Sin(y) – 2[-yCos(y) +
Sin(y)]])
c) (-x3 Cos(x) + 3x2 Sin(x) + 6xCos(x)-6Sin(x))(-y3 Cos(y) + 3y2 Sin(y) + 6yCos(y) – 6Sin(y))
d) (–x3 Cos(x) + 6xCos(x) – 6Sin(x))(-y3 Cos(y))
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: Add constant automatically
∫x3 Sin(x)dx = -x3 Cos(x) + 3∫x2 Cos(x)dx
∫x2 Cos(x)dx = x2 Sin(x) – 2∫xSin(x)dx
∫xSin(x)dx = -xCos(x) + ∫Cos(x)dx = -xCos(x) + Sin(x)
=> ∫x3 Sin(x)dx = -x3 Cos(x) + 3[x2 Sin(x) – 2[-xCos(x) + Sin(x)]] => ∫x3 Sin(x)dx = -x3 Cos(x) +
3x2 Sin(x) + 6xCos(x) – 6Sin(x)
and, ∫y3 Sin(y)dy = -y3 Cos(x) + 3∫y2 Cos(y)dy
∫y2 Cos(y)dy = y2 Sin(y) – 2∫ySin(y)dy
∫ySin(y)dy = -yCos(y) + ∫Cos(y)dy = -yCos(y) + Sin(y)
=> ∫y3 Sin(y)dy = -y3 Cos(y) + 3[y2 Sin(y) – 2[-yCos(y) + Sin(y)]] => ∫y3 Sin(y)dy = -y3 Cos(y) +
3y2 Sin(y) + 6yCos(y) – 6Sin(y)
Hence, ∫∫x3 y3 sin⁡(x) sin⁡(y) dxdy = (∫x3 Sin(x)dx)(∫y3 Sin(y)dy) = (-x3 Cos(x) + 3x2 Sin(x)
+6xCos(x) – 6Sin(x))(-y3 Cos(y) + 3y2 Sin(y) + 6yCos(y) – 6Sin(y)).

Explanation: Given dy(t)dt=10t… where y(t) is the distance travelled a function of time

above equation is a first order first degree DE where t varies from 0 to 4 seconds integrating
on both side w.r.t t we get ∫40dy(t)=∫4010tdt =y(4)−y(0)=[5t2]40….. but y(0) = 0
since car is at rest at time t=o
y(4) = 5(16) = 80m.
