Calculating the volume of a sphere after switching to spherical coordinates?

The name of the pictureThe name of the pictureThe name of the pictureClash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP

I used the code in the second answer on this page to switch from Cartesian to Spherical coordinates and integrate a function over the sphere. I would like to use this code to calculate the volume of a sphere. However if I set $ f(x, y, z) = 1 $, I get the following output:




$ -frac13r^3 varphicos(theta) $




Here is the code I used:



Needs["VectorAnalysis`"]

JacobianDeterminant[Spherical[r, θ, ϕ]]

f[x_, y_, z_] := 1

Integrate[
f @@ CoordinatesToCartesian[#, Spherical @@ #] JacobianDeterminant[
Spherical @@ #] &@r, θ, ϕ,
r, θ, ϕ]


How can I make the code return the volume of a sphere which is $frac43pi r^3$?

          ]



          (4 π R^3)/3




          That is, you just have to add the integral boundaries.

            f[x_, y_, z_] := 1

            Integrate[transform[f], r, θ, 0, π, ϕ, 0, 2 π]
