The question asks me to formulate a triple integral for the volume of the cap of the solid sphere $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 \leq 10$ cut off by the plane $z=1$?
Here's the integral I formulated as an answer (I used cylindrical coordinates):
$$\int_0^{2\pi} \int_0^\sqrt{10} \int_1^\sqrt{10-r^2} r \ dz \ dr \ d\theta$$
However, apparently the correct answer is:
$$\int_0^{2\pi} \int_0^3 \int_1^\sqrt{10-r^2} r \ dz \ dr \ d\theta$$
The only difference is the $3$, but where does the $3$ come from? $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 \leq 10$ implies we're dealing with a sphere with radius $\sqrt{10}$. I have no idea where the $3$ is coming from really. Any help is appreciated.
When $z=1$ you have
$$x^2+y^2+z^2=10$$ $$x^2+y^2+1^2=10$$ $$x^2+y^2=9$$
... a circle of radius 3. This "shadow" of the solid defines the region in the xy plane the integration is happening over.
