A Coordinate on Hoop and Globe
A ladybug lands at a uniformly random point on a circular wire hoop of radius 3 centered at the origin (uniform along the wire). What is the variance of its -coordinate? Now a satellite is at a uniformly random point on the *surface* of a sphere of radius 3, also centered at the origin. What is the variance of its -coordinate?
