The video tutorial explains how to calculate the volume of a region E, which is bounded by a cone and a hemisphere, using triple integrals in spherical coordinates. It covers the setup of the integral, determining the limits of integration, and the integration process itself. The tutorial also discusses the use of XZ and YZ traces to aid in setting the limits and simplifies the final result to find the volume of the region.
