On an interval with , the equation is a separable differential equation. For ,
Taking antiderivatives gives . Renaming the constant, the explicit general nonzero solution is
It is defined on any interval avoiding and zeros of its denominator. The separation divided by , so the additional solution must be included.
The handle and the two end pieces have disjoint interiors; their common boundary circles contribute no volume. Hence the total mass is . With , the results above give
Equivalently, since ,
Use spherical coordinates centred on the right-hand sphere, with polar axis pointing outwards along . The Jacobian determinant is , and the retained region is with .
For , every polar angle is allowed. For , the cut requires . Splitting the volume integral at therefore gives
Substitution of and reproduces the mass in part (c). The radial split avoids integrating over a polar angle range independent of , which would incorrectly include part of the removed spherical cap.
Centre cylindrical coordinates on the right-hand sphere, with the axial coordinate positive outwards. Using and , the retained solid satisfies
In particular, it contains more than a hemisphere; it is the small cap on the inward side that has been removed. The volume integral for its mass, including the Jacobian determinant , is
Thus each end piece has mass
Equivalently this is the volume of a spherical cap with height , multiplied by the uniform mass density.

Use cylindrical coordinates about the dumbbell axis. Their Jacobian determinant contributes the volume factor , so the handle's mass is the volume integral
Inserting the radius from part (a) yields
Take the dumbbell axis to be the axis, with its midpoint at . The right-hand sphere has centre and radius , while its junction with the cylinder is at . Put , so . The Pythagorean theorem in a meridional cross-section gives the handle radius from . Thus
For , use the finite geometric series with ratio :
The second equality follows by factoring in numerator and denominator. Taking real parts proves the finite trigonometric sum identity
When , every cosine is , so the sum is . This also gives the continuous limiting value at the excluded arguments.
Since with real , necessarily . Use Euler's formula and set . Then
so the quadratic equation gives . Let . It lies on the upper half of the unit circle, so with . Choose the complex logarithm value , taking at . The two roots are , so gives .
Because , this set of real solutions is exactly
The formula includes : the two sign families then coincide after adjusting . No real exists if .
A counterclockwise rotation through about the origin in the complex plane sends to . By part (a), and because the complex conjugate of is ,
Thus is invariant under the common rotation.
The given complex numbers have positive real parts, so and . Their product is
By the assumed complex argument ranges, this product also has positive real part, hence . Its complex argument is consequently , with no extra multiple of . Since multiplication adds complex arguments,
This proves the arctangent addition formula under the stated branch restriction. For arbitrary real , the principal inverse tangent formula can require adding or subtracting when .
The dot product is , while the Euclidean norms are and . Therefore the angle satisfies
Contracting the Kronecker delta identifies . The remaining two independent sums are dot products, so the Einstein summation convention gives
