A spherical sector or spherical sector denoted in the mathematics a conical segment from the center of a ball to its surface . The hemisphere is a special case .
Formulas
The following formulas apply to the calculation of volume , lateral area and surface of a spherical section . It denotes the radius of the ball , the radius of the base circle of the ball segment and the height of the ball segment.
r
{\ displaystyle r}
a
{\ displaystyle a}
H
{\ displaystyle h}
These three quantities are not independent of one another. The segment of the sphere is determined by any two of these three sizes. The third can be calculated from two of the three quantities. In all formulas - should be taken for ± if the segment of the sphere is less than half the size of the sphere, otherwise + for ±.

Instead of and, it is sufficient to specify the angle of the base circle (see illustration). The following applies:
a
{\ displaystyle a}
H

θ

{\ displaystyle \ theta _ {0}}
a

{\ displaystyle h = r \ cdot (1- \ cos (\ theta _ {0}))}
There are therefore several formulas, depending on which of the quantities is given.

Derivation
To derive these formulas , one subdivides them into two fields: cone and spherical segment . The cone has the base circle radius and the height .
a
{\ displaystyle a}
r
-
H
{\ displaystyle rh}
The volume of the cone is
V
K
=
π
3
⋅
a
2
⋅
(
r
-
H
)
{\ displaystyle V_ {K} = {\ frac {\ pi} {3}} \ cdot a ^ {2} \ cdot (rh)}
The spherical segment has the volume
V
S.
=
π
3
⋅
H
2
⋅
(
3
⋅
r
-
H
)
{\ displaystyle V_ {S} = {\ frac {\ pi} {3}} \ cdot h ^ {2} \ cdot (3 \ cdot rh)}
So is the volume of the sphere sector
V
=
V
K
+
V
S.
=
π

⋅
(
r

H
)

π

⋅
H
2
⋅
(
3
⋅
r
-
H
)
{\ displaystyle V = V_ {K} + V_ {S} = {\ frac {\ pi} {3}} \ cdot a ^ {2} \ cdot (rh) + {\ frac {\ pi} {3}} \ cdot h ^ {2} \ cdot (3 \ cdot rh)}
From the Pythagorean theorem follows . Finally, inserting and releasing the brackets delivers
a

=
2
⋅
H
⋅
r

{\ displaystyle a ^ {2} = 2 \ cdot h \ cdot rh ^ {2}}

{\ displaystyle V = {\ frac {2 \ cdot \ pi} {3}} \ cdot r ^ {2} \ cdot h}

{\ displaystyle V = \ int _ {0} ^ {\ theta _ {0}} \ int _ {0} ^ {2 \ cdot \ pi} \ int _ {0} ^ {r} \ rho ^ {2} \ cdot \ sin (\ theta) \, \ mathrm {d} \ rho \, \ mathrm {d} \ phi \, \ mathrm {d} \ theta = {\ frac {2 \ cdot \ pi} {3}} \ cdot r ^ {3} \ cdot \ int _ {0} ^ {\ theta _ {0}} \ sin (\ theta) \, \ mathrm {d} \ theta = {\ frac {2 \ cdot \ pi} {3}} \ cdot r ^ {3} \ cdot (1- \ cos (\ theta _ {0}))}
where is half the opening angle of the cone part. With follows the above formula for the volume .
θ

{\ displaystyle \ theta _ {0}}
H
=
r
(

)
{\ displaystyle h = r (1- \ cos \ theta _ {0})}
The outer surface of the cone is
M.
K
=
π
⋅
a
⋅
r
{\ displaystyle M_ {K} = \ pi \ cdot a \ cdot r}
and the surface of the spherical segment (without a base circle)
M.
S.

π
⋅
r
⋅
H
{\ displaystyle M_ {S} = 2 \ cdot \ pi \ cdot r \ cdot h}
.
That’s the surface
