RRR

The moment of inertia is defined as I =
E r dV of a body E, where r = r(x, y, z) is
the distance of a point (x, y, z) to the axes of rotation and is the density of the body.

If a body rotates with angular velocity , then E = I 2 /2 is the rotational energy of the body.
The fact that fast rotation leads to a large energy can be demonstrated by spinning a CD until
it disintegrates ...
Challenge Problems
(Solutions to these problems are not turned in with the homework.)
1) Find the volume of the intersection of two cylinders y 2 + z 2 = 1 and x2 + z 2 = 1. Hint. Look
what happens, when you cut the body at a fixed z value and calculate the area of this section.
2) Use a quadruple integral to find the hyper volume of the hyper-sphere x 2 + y 2 + z 2 + w2 = r2
in R4 .
Hint. If you slice up the hyper-sphere at w, you get a sphere of radius
volume of the sphere from w = r to w = r using substitution.
3) Interpret the triple integral
