example of integration over sphere with respect to surface area


As an example of how to use the formula derived in http://planetmath.org/node/6664example 1, let us consider the following example:

∫S(sin⁡u⁢cos⁡v-sin⁡v)2⁢d2⁢A=∫02⁢π∫0π(sin⁡u⁢cos⁡v-sin⁡v)2⁢sin⁡u⁢d⁢u⁢d⁢v=
∫02⁢π∫0π(sin3⁡u⁢cos2⁡v-2⁢sin2⁡u⁢sin⁡v⁢cos⁡v+sin⁡u⁢sin2⁡v)⁢𝑑u⁢𝑑v=
∫02⁢π(2⁢cos2⁡v-23⁢cos2⁡v-π⁢sin⁡v⁢cos⁡v+2⁢sin2⁡v)⁢𝑑v=
2⁢π-2⁢π3-0+2⁢π=10⁢π3
