Show that when Euler’s method is used to approximate the solution of the initial value problem y(0) = 1 , at x= 1, then the approximation with step size his.
Use the fourth-order Runge–Kutta algorithm to approximate the solution to the initial value problemat x = 2. For a tolerance of, use a stopping procedure based on the absolute error.
A garage with no heating or cooling has a time constant of 2 hr. If the outside temperature varies as a sine wave with a minimum of atand a maximum ofat, determine the times at which the building reaches its lowest temperature and its highest temperature, assuming the exponential term has died off.
An object of mass 60 kg starts from rest at the top of a 45º inclined plane. Assume that the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.05 (see Problem 18). If the force due to air resistance is proportional to the velocity of the object, say, -3, find the equation of motion of the object. How long will it take the object to reach the bottom of the inclined plane if the incline is 10 m long?

Local versus Global Error. In deriving formula (4) for Euler’s method, a rectangle was used to approximate the area under a curve (see Figure 3.14). With
\({\bf{g(t) = f(t,f(t))}}\), this approximation can be written as \(\int\limits_{{{\bf{x}}_{\bf{n}}}}^{{{\bf{x}}_{{\bf{n + 1}}}}} {{\bf{g(t)dt}} \approx {\bf{hg(}}{{\bf{x}}_{\bf{n}}}{\bf{)}}} \)where \({\bf{h = }}{{\bf{x}}_{{\bf{n + 1}}}}{\bf{ - }}{{\bf{x}}_{\bf{n}}}\) .
