Finding $iiint x^2,{rm d}x{rm d}y{rm d}z$ over the volume bounded by $frac{x^2}{a^2} + frac{y^2}{b^2} +...

$begingroup$



Finding the value of $$iiint x^2,mathrm dxmathrm dymathrm dz$$ over the volume bounded by the ellipsoid $$frac{x^2}{a^2} + frac{y^2}{b^2} + frac{z^2}{c^2}= 1.$$




I am taking limits as follow:



$$-a leq x leq a$$
$$-frac{b}{a} (a^2-x^2)^{1/2} leq y leq frac{b}{a} (a^2-x^2)^{1/2}$$
$$-frac{c}{ab} ((ab)^2 - (bx)^2 - (ay)^2)^{1/2} leq z leq frac{c}{ab} ((ab)^2 - (bx)^2 - (ay)^2)^{1/2}$$
And solving the integral as $mathrm dz$ first then $mathrm dy$ and then $mathrm dx$. But it is just becoming harder and harder with each step.



I do not have a tutor. So, I highly need help of you masters. Please help me.

    With the use of generalized spherical coordinates it becomes really easy: $x=racos phi cos theta, ; y=rb sin phi cos theta, ; z=rc sin theta.$

First, rewrite the integral as



$$int_{-a}^a x^2 intint_{E_x}1 dy dz dx $$



where $E_x$ is the ellipse in the $yz$-plane satisfying $frac{y^2}{b^2} + frac{z^2}{c^2} = (1-frac{x^2}{a^2})$. By arranging the formula of the ellipse into the more familiar form $frac{y^2}{b^2left(1-frac{x^2}{a^2}right)} + frac{z^2}{c^2left(1-frac{x^2}{a^2}right)}=1$, we see that the area of said ellipse is $pi bc(1-frac{x^2}{a^2})$ (e.g. see Wikipedia for area of ellipse formula).



Thus, the triple integral simplifies to the single-variable integral



$$int_{-a}^a x^2 pi bc(1-frac{x^2}{a^2}) dx= frac{4}{15}pi a^3 bc$$
