1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,600 2 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:01,149 Welcome back. 3 00:00:01,149 --> 00:00:03,009 I don't know what I was thinking. 4 00:00:03,009 --> 00:00:04,419 Sometimes my brain malfunctions. 5 00:00:04,419 --> 00:00:06,160 But just going back to that problem we were doing, actually 6 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:07,970 I think we should do it. 7 00:00:07,969 --> 00:00:09,959 I'm a little schizophrenic today. 8 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:12,210 So let's figure out the equation for the 9 00:00:12,210 --> 00:00:14,220 volume of a sphere. 10 00:00:14,220 --> 00:00:15,630 So what's the equation? 11 00:00:15,630 --> 00:00:20,899 It's x squared plus y squared is equal to r squared. 12 00:00:20,899 --> 00:00:23,629 And let's just write y as a function of x, just so 13 00:00:23,629 --> 00:00:25,369 we can do it the way we did that last problem. 14 00:00:25,370 --> 00:00:31,200 So you get y squared is equal to r squared minus x squared. 15 00:00:31,199 --> 00:00:35,799 y is equal to the square root of r squared minus x squared. 16 00:00:35,799 --> 00:00:37,409 And let's draw it. 17 00:00:37,409 --> 00:00:45,189 So if this is my y-axis, this is my x-axis, and the 18 00:00:45,189 --> 00:00:52,420 equation-- draw it straight-- that's my x-axis, and then I 19 00:00:52,420 --> 00:00:55,190 actually have a circle tool, let me see if I can use it 20 00:00:55,189 --> 00:01:10,759 effectively-- well, close enough. 21 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:11,190 There you go. 22 00:01:11,189 --> 00:01:12,390 I think you get the point. 23 00:01:12,390 --> 00:01:13,359 But anyway. 24 00:01:13,359 --> 00:01:16,569 This is just going to be the upper half of the circle. 25 00:01:16,569 --> 00:01:18,329 Actually, I should probably just undo that circle tool 26 00:01:18,329 --> 00:01:19,590 and try to draw it by hand. 27 00:01:19,590 --> 00:01:21,950 So y equals the square root of r squared minus x squared. 28 00:01:21,950 --> 00:01:24,469 That's just going to be the upper half of the circle. 29 00:01:24,469 --> 00:01:34,000 So it will be the positive x quadrant-- and then actually, 30 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,200 I should have drawn the whole hemisphere. 31 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,350 But anyway. 32 00:01:38,349 --> 00:01:39,969 Actually, let me do that, because I think it'll 33 00:01:39,969 --> 00:01:46,140 make-- edit, undo, let me clear all of this out. 34 00:01:46,140 --> 00:01:50,629 Sorry for wasting your time, but I think it'll be effective. 35 00:01:50,629 --> 00:01:50,989 OK. 36 00:01:50,989 --> 00:01:51,774 So let me redraw. 37 00:01:51,775 --> 00:01:54,460 38 00:01:54,459 --> 00:02:03,719 So this, that's the y-axis, that's my x-axis, and then 39 00:02:03,719 --> 00:02:07,340 this-- the square root is, since it's a function, it can 40 00:02:07,340 --> 00:02:10,020 only have one value, so we assume it's defined as the 41 00:02:10,020 --> 00:02:11,500 positive square root. 42 00:02:11,500 --> 00:02:16,490 So if we were to graph that, it would look like this. 43 00:02:16,490 --> 00:02:21,590 Something like that, where this would be minus r and that's r. 44 00:02:21,590 --> 00:02:24,909 So if we want to find the volume of a sphere with radius 45 00:02:24,909 --> 00:02:29,909 r, we just have to rotate this function around the x-axis. 46 00:02:29,909 --> 00:02:33,740 This is the x-axis, that's the y-axis. 47 00:02:33,740 --> 00:02:36,330 So let's see what we can do. 48 00:02:36,330 --> 00:02:38,690 Let's just visualize the disks again. 49 00:02:38,689 --> 00:02:41,849 So let me make a disk. 50 00:02:41,849 --> 00:02:49,789 So let's say that that's the side of one of the disks again, 51 00:02:49,789 --> 00:02:52,669 and as we know, the depth of the disk is just 52 00:02:52,669 --> 00:02:54,589 going to be dx. 53 00:02:54,590 --> 00:02:58,000 That's how wide that disk is, dx. 54 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,210 And its radius at any point is f of x, and in this case, it's 55 00:03:01,210 --> 00:03:04,180 y is equal to square root of r squared minus x squared. 56 00:03:04,180 --> 00:03:07,740 So what's the surface area of each disk? 57 00:03:07,740 --> 00:03:08,879 What's this? 58 00:03:08,879 --> 00:03:10,900 The surface area of each of the disks. 59 00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:12,420 I hope you know what I'm saying. 60 00:03:12,419 --> 00:03:16,849 So area is equal to pi r squared, the radius at any 61 00:03:16,849 --> 00:03:20,489 point is equal to this, radius is equal to y which is equal to 62 00:03:20,490 --> 00:03:23,770 square root-- and remember, this is not this r. 63 00:03:23,770 --> 00:03:25,520 This is the radius of this disk. 64 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:26,500 I know it might be a little confusing. 65 00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:29,360 66 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:34,940 y is equal to the square root of r squared minus x squared. 67 00:03:34,939 --> 00:03:38,680 So the area is going to equal pi times this squared. 68 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,650 So if you square this quantity, you just get rid of the 69 00:03:40,650 --> 00:03:42,560 square root sign, right? 70 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:47,599 So pi r squared minus x squared, and that's the 71 00:03:47,599 --> 00:03:50,019 area, and so what's the volume of that disk? 72 00:03:50,020 --> 00:03:52,900 Well just like we've done in every video up to this point, 73 00:03:52,900 --> 00:03:56,349 the volume of that disk is just that, so the volume of that 74 00:03:56,349 --> 00:04:05,469 disk is just this pi r squared minus x squared times dx. 75 00:04:05,469 --> 00:04:07,859 And so if we want to figure out the volume of all these disks, 76 00:04:07,860 --> 00:04:10,255 I have a disk here, a disk here, going around and around 77 00:04:10,254 --> 00:04:12,329 and around and around and around and they get smaller and 78 00:04:12,330 --> 00:04:14,340 smaller until we have a sphere. 79 00:04:14,340 --> 00:04:19,019 We just take the integral, the upper bound is positive r, the 80 00:04:19,019 --> 00:04:22,939 lower bound is minus r, and we take the integral of 81 00:04:22,939 --> 00:04:24,980 this expression. 82 00:04:24,980 --> 00:04:27,240 pi-- let me distribute it, because that's going to make it 83 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:37,090 easier-- pi r squared, which is just a constant term, minus pi 84 00:04:37,089 --> 00:04:41,560 x squared, all of that dx. 85 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,870 So what's the antiderivative of that expression? 86 00:04:43,870 --> 00:04:47,269 The antiderivative within the parentheses. 87 00:04:47,269 --> 00:04:49,629 Well, this is just a constant term. 88 00:04:49,629 --> 00:04:52,089 pi r squared, that's just a number, because we're just 89 00:04:52,089 --> 00:04:57,549 taking the integral with respect to x. 90 00:04:57,550 --> 00:05:04,660 So the antiderivative of pi r squared is just pi r squared x, 91 00:05:04,660 --> 00:05:08,370 the derivative of pi r squared x is just pi r squared, minus-- 92 00:05:08,370 --> 00:05:11,160 and we did this in the last video. 93 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,670 Actually, well now, it's the antiderivative x squared, which 94 00:05:13,670 --> 00:05:18,860 is x to the third over 3, and the pi is just a constant, so 95 00:05:18,860 --> 00:05:25,670 pi x to the third over 3, and we're going to evaluate 96 00:05:25,670 --> 00:05:29,439 that at r and minus r. 97 00:05:29,439 --> 00:05:31,939 Let me erase some stuff, looks like I'm running out of space. 98 00:05:31,939 --> 00:05:37,689 99 00:05:37,689 --> 00:05:40,839 Hopefully all of that you know by now. 100 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:45,619 OK, back to the pen tool. 101 00:05:45,620 --> 00:05:45,910 OK. 102 00:05:45,910 --> 00:05:49,080 So let's evaluate it at r. 103 00:05:49,079 --> 00:05:58,919 So this is pi r squared, and then for x, we'll substitute 104 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:07,439 the positive r times r minus pi x cubed, but now we have this r 105 00:06:07,439 --> 00:06:21,870 here, so r cubed over 3 minus pi r squared, and then we have 106 00:06:21,870 --> 00:06:25,290 a minus r here, because we're evaluating the antiderivative 107 00:06:25,290 --> 00:06:36,120 at minus r, times minus r, minus pi minus r cubed. 108 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:37,240 So what's minus r cubed? 109 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,370 It's r cubed, but we'll keep the minus sign. 110 00:06:40,370 --> 00:06:42,540 r cubed, and at that minus sign, let's just make 111 00:06:42,540 --> 00:06:46,650 that-- that'll turn that into a plus-- over 3. 112 00:06:46,649 --> 00:06:49,069 Let's see if we can clean this up a little bit. 113 00:06:49,069 --> 00:07:01,300 So that first term is pi r cubed, r squared times r, minus 114 00:07:01,300 --> 00:07:08,780 essentially 1/3pi r cubed. 115 00:07:08,779 --> 00:07:10,309 And then, what is this? 116 00:07:10,310 --> 00:07:14,410 This is pi r cubed, but then we have a minus sign up. 117 00:07:14,410 --> 00:07:17,090 This is minus pi r cubed, and then we have a minus sign up 118 00:07:17,089 --> 00:07:28,310 here, so this becomes plus pi r cubed, and then minus-- because 119 00:07:28,310 --> 00:07:30,829 we have a plus here and a minus out here, so distribute it-- 120 00:07:30,829 --> 00:07:37,609 so minus 1/3pi r cubed. 121 00:07:37,610 --> 00:07:39,420 And let's see, what do we have? 122 00:07:39,420 --> 00:07:41,680 We have essentially 1. 123 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:48,780 If we just distribute out the pi r cubes, we have pi r cubed 124 00:07:48,779 --> 00:07:57,199 times 1 minus 1/3 plus 1 minus 1/3. 125 00:07:57,199 --> 00:08:03,819 Well that's 2 minus 2/3, or another way, let's see, is 2 126 00:08:03,819 --> 00:08:07,120 minus 2/3-- this is turning into a fractions problem-- and 127 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:11,970 what's-- well, that's 6/3 minus 2/3, it equals 4/3. 128 00:08:11,970 --> 00:08:14,280 So this is equal to 4/3. 129 00:08:14,279 --> 00:08:23,779 So the volume of the sphere is equal to 4/3 pi r cubed, which 130 00:08:23,779 --> 00:08:28,239 is the equation for the volume of a sphere. 131 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:29,759 And actually, now that I realize, it did take 132 00:08:29,759 --> 00:08:32,189 me eight and a half minutes, so I am glad. 133 00:08:32,190 --> 00:08:35,310 My first intuition is always correct, I am glad I did 134 00:08:35,309 --> 00:08:36,169 this in a separate video. 135 00:08:36,169 --> 00:08:37,649 But that should be pretty interesting to you. 136 00:08:37,649 --> 00:08:40,840 And it makes a lot of sense. 137 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,800 It's going to be a cube of the radius, pi is involved. 138 00:08:43,799 --> 00:08:46,949 The 4/3 is interesting, just in terms of how it relates 139 00:08:46,950 --> 00:08:49,400 to everything else. 140 00:08:49,399 --> 00:08:52,949 Area is pi r squared, and then all of a sudden you get a 4/3 141 00:08:52,950 --> 00:08:54,360 here, so it is something for you to think about. 142 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,129 Anyway, hopefully you found that fun. 143 00:08:56,129 --> 00:08:56,929 I'll see you in the next video. 144 00:08:56,929 --> 00:08:58,399
