I want to calculate the volume enclosed by z2=1+x2+y2 and the plane z=2.
When z=2, x2+y2=3→r=√3
So I have set up the integral in polar coordinates as:
∫2π0∫√30r√1+r2drdθ
Solving this integral I get 14π/3 however this gives us the area under the surface and we want the area above the surface so I minus the area of the cylinder height 2 and radius √3 i.e. A=πr2h=6π therefore the final answer should be 8π/3 but according to the answer I am 2 times the correct answer? Where did I go wrong?
