I calculated the Volume of a specific solid using 2 different methods, first I did Integration, and then pure geometry. Consider $$ x=2-\sqrt{y^2+z^2} $$ where : $$0< x < 1$$
I did integration and it gave $4 \pi/3 $ and then I simply calculated the volume of the solid by doing the difference between the cones' volumes, and it gave me $7\pi/3$ ... It's a silly doubt, but I am not understanding!
Basically, this is a cone divided in half, aligned on x-axis. Couldn't I simply do the difference of the bigger cone with the smaller cone?
Let, $x=t$ and integral
$V=∫_1^0 \pi(2-t)^2dt$ $=\pi[(2-t)^3/3]$ $=7\pi/3$
calculating by subtract cone
$V=4\pi*2/3-\pi/3=7\pi/3$
