Question
The accompanying figure shows a spherical cap of radius \(\rho\) and height \(h\) cut from a sphere of radius \(r\). Show that the volume \(V\) of the spherical cap can be expressed as
(a) \(V=\frac{1}{3} \pi h^{2}(3 r-h)\)
(b) \(V=\frac{1}{6} \pi h\left(3 \rho^{2}+h^{2}\right)\)
Solution
The first step in solving 6.2 problem number 55 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The accompanying figure shows a spherical cap of radius \(\rho\) and height \(h\) cut from a sphere of radius \(r\). Show that the volume \(V\) of the spherical cap can be expressed as(a) \(V=\frac{1}{3} \pi h^{2}(3 r-h)\)(b) \(V=\frac{1}{6} \pi h\left(3 \rho^{2}+h^{2}\right)\)
