    The value of\[\int_{0}^{\pi }{|{{\sin }^{3}}\theta |d\theta }\]is:

    A) \[0\]                                     

    B) \[\pi \]

    C) \[4/3\]                                 

    D) \[3/8\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let     \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi }{|{{\sin }^{3}}\theta |d\theta }\] Since, \[\sin \theta \] is positive in the interval\[0\]to\[\pi \]. \[\therefore \]  \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi }{{{\sin }^{3}}\theta \,\,d\theta }\]                   \[=\int_{0}^{\pi }{(1-{{\cos }^{2}}\theta )}\sin \theta \,\,d\theta \] Put,        \[\cos \theta =t\Rightarrow -\sin \theta .d\theta =dt\] \[\therefore \]  \[I=-\int_{1}^{-1}{(1-{{t}^{2}})}dt=-2\left[ t-\frac{{{t}^{3}}}{3} \right]_{0}^{-1}\]                    \[=-2\left[ -1+\frac{1}{3} \right]=\frac{4}{3}\] Alternate Solution: Let          \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi }{|{{\sin }^{3}}\theta |}\,d\theta \]                    \[=\int_{0}^{\pi }{{{\sin }^{3}}\theta }\,d\theta \]                    \[=2\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{{{\sin }^{3}}\theta \,\,d\theta }\] Use Gamma function                    \[=2\left[ \frac{2}{3\cdot 1} \right]=\frac{4}{3}\]
