Chapter 14, Problem 43

(choose chapter or problem)

(a) Use a double integral in polar coordinates to find the volume of the oblate spheroid

          \(\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{z^{2}}{c^{2}}=1(0<c<a)\)

(b) Use the result in part (a) and the World Geodetic System of 1984 (WGS-84) discussed in Exercise 54 of Section 11.7 to find the volume of the Earth in cubic meters.

Text Transcription:

x^2/a^2 + y^2/a^2 + z^2/c^2 = 1 (0<c<a)
