d(V) = d(4*pi*rho^3/3)*d(theta/2/pi)*d((1 - cos(phi))/2) = 4*pi*rho^2*d(rho)*d(theta)/2/pi*sin(phi)*d(phi)/2 = rho^2*sin(phi)*d(rho)*d(theta)*d(phi)
In spherical coordinates, d(V) is equal to the product of the following three factors.d(4*pi*rho^3/3) = 4*pi*rho^2*d(rho)d(theta/2/pi) = d(theta)/2/pid((1 - cos(phi))/2) = sin(phi)*d(phi)/2
4*pi*rho^3/3 = volume(sphere)0 <= theta/2/pi <= 1since0 <= theta <= 2*pi0 <= (1 - cos(phi))/2 <= 1since0 <= phi <= pi
The variables are correctly labeled, or defined, in the accompanying image.
