Integration over Sphere












0












$begingroup$


I have a question to a pretty basic integration problem. I was pretty sure about my solution but my tutor had a different one such that I am confused now. The integral is the following:



$$int_{S_r(0)} z^2 d S_r(0)$$



Using the standard parameterization, I obtain:



$$d S = r^2 sin(theta) d theta d phi$$



$$int_{S_r(0)} z^2 d S_r(0) = int_{0}^{2 pi} int_{0}^{pi} r^2 cos^2(theta) r^2 sin(theta) d theta d phi = dots = frac{4 r^4pi}{3}$$



I would be very glad if someone could verify or falsify the result!



Thanks much in advance



Andreas

    Can you encase your tex syntax in dollar and double dollar cases?

    Thank you!.. As I stated, that’s exactly my result as well. Does it make a difference when I write $int_{S_r(0)} z^2 dvol_{S_r(0)}$ ?
