  • In this video, I calculate the volume of an ice cream cone that is obtained as the region between a cone and a hemisphere. Here I present a direct approach, without spherical coordinates. In a future video I’ll show you how to do this with spherical coordinates.

    You always make me smile when I'm watching your videos :)
    Edit: Moments like 10:35 for example :D

    I work in an ice cream shop and that's not a particularly realistic ice cream cone. :P More rather it's a mostly licked-down ice cream cone where the hemisphere intersects with the cone that is itself not easy to hold properly. What you really need is a cone with a steeper slope to its sides (imagine if you will that if you sliced the cone through its center and projected it onto a 2D plane, it might resemble a function similar to y=|2x| or y=|3x|), and the sphere needs to rest on top such that it is tangent to the sides of the cone, *then* calculate the volume of the space enclosed by the two volumes. ;)

    Lol do an ice cream cone with ten scoops where each scoop is ten percent the radius of the previous scoop, or something like that would be fun and interesting and have a cool picture to go with it, likely easier to do with geometry than calculus at that point though 0.o

    What if the ice cream was a minimal surface ice cream; would this affect the volume calculation?

    Before watching and without any calculus I'd say it's the revolution body about the z-axis of the region between z=r and z^2+r^2=8, so a cone with base area 8pi and height sqrt(8), plus half a sphere of radius sqrt 8: so volume = 1/3 • 8•pi • sqrt(8) + 2/3• 8•pi•sqrt(8) = 16•sqrt(2)•pi. Amazing that the cone is half the volume of the hemisphere!
    Edit: no, I was wrong, it should have taken only the top slice of the sphere, and also less of the cone! What I calculated here correspond to the much bigger volume between a translated cone z = sqrt(x^2+y^2) - sqrt(8) or z=r-sqrt(8) and the complete hemisphere, a much bigger shape with slightly more resemblance to a true ice cone shape (yay!) but still too widely open.

    The cone of an ice-cream transitions to the sphere at a tangent circle that's less than the diameter of that sphere. Usually? If all you do is place a sphere inside a cone, there is a negative volume in the transition for which you haven't accounted. It's a ring with almost a triangular cross-section.

    Good morning, Peyam, can you please make a video of calculating integral of {1/x} from 0 to 1 (like you did with tangent). I believe the answer is 1-γ, where γ is the Euler-Mascheroni constant. Very beautiful imho. And it's also quite nice because it's obvious that this integral is somewhere on the interval [0;1], so 0

    what is the definition of disk?
    is it a circle but filled? and then the circle is just the shape?
    like sphere and ball?

      In a usual plane, given a point O and a distance R
      the circle of center O and radius R is the set of points M such that the distance between O and M is equal to R
      the disk of center O and radius R is the set of points M such that the distance between O and M is equal to or less than R

    Why could you multiply the integrand by r at 9:28?

    • @John75ify
      @John75ify 6 років тому

      When you change from cartesian to polar coordinates, an extra factor of r appears. So it is: dxdy -> rdrdθ. This is just how it is when you either do it using the Jacobian or using vector calculus and getting the cross product directly.
