A point in rectangular coordinates   (x,y,z) can be represented in spherical  coordinates (r,θ,ϕ) by:   x = r sin θ sin ϕ, y = sin θ sin ϕ,   z = sin ϕ, 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π , 0 ≤ ϕ ≤ π  (a) Calculate the Jacobian of the   transformation ((∂(x,y,z))/(∂(r,θ,ϕ)))  (b) Calculate the volume of the region  delimited by the sphere:    S = {x,y,z ∈R^3  , x^2 +y^2 +z^2  ≤ R^2 , R>0}
