CalculusWe are asked to evaluate the triple integral:
By linearity, the integral can be split into two separate integrals:
where:
Since the integration limits are independent constants, each multiple integral can be factored into single variable integrals:
The function is an odd function, and the limits of integration are symmetric about zero:
Thus, .
Similarly, for :
Since is also an odd function over the symmetric interval :
Thus, .
Therefore:
Try the question first, then check your work.
Examiner trap
Notice that each term contains an odd function ( and respectively) integrated over a symmetric interval about zero.
