14.7.16 Choose a coordinate system in which the cylinders axis is the z-axis,
and its lower base lies in the (r, )-plane, so that the points of the cylinder are
described by:
0 r a, 0 2, 0 z h
The volume of the cylinder is V = a
2
h and it has constant density , so its mass
is m = a
2
h, and the moment of inertia around the z-axis is:

14.7.28 Note that both the shape and the density of our spherical shell are
symmetric around any diameter. So the moment of inertia will be the same for all
diameters, and we can restrict our attention to the diameter lying along the z-axis.
The distance from this axis for a point with spherical coordinates (, , ) is sin,
so our moment of inertia will be:

14.7.29 The surface with spherical-coordinates equation = 2a sin is gener-
ated as follows. Draw the circle in the xz-plane with center (a, 0) and radius a.
Rotate this circle around the z-axis. This generates the surface with the given
equation. It is called a pinched torus - a doughnut with an innitesimal hole. Its
volume is

We evaluated the last integral with the aid of Formula(113) from the long table
of integrals(see the endpapers). The volume of the pinched torus is also easy to
evaluate using the rst theorem of Pappus.(Section 14.5)
