Chapter 3: Q 3.7-7E (page 90)
Use the fourth-order Runge–Kutta subroutine with h= 0.25 to approximate the solution to the initial value problem , at x= 1. (Thus, input N= 4.) Compare this approximation to the actual solution evaluated at x= 1.

Show that when the improved Euler’s method is used to approximate the solution of the initial value problem , at , then the approximation with step size his .
An object of mass 5 kg is released from rest 1000 m above the ground and allowed to fall under the influence of gravity. Assuming the force due to air resistance is proportional to the velocity of the object with proportionality constant b = 50 N-sec/m, determine the equation of motion of the object. When will the object strike the ground?
A red wine is brought up from the wine cellar, which is a cool 10°C, and left to breathe in a room of temperature 23°C. If it takes 10 min for the wine to reach 15°C, when will the temperature of the wine reach 18°C?
Use the improved Euler’s method with tolerance to approximate the solution to , at . For a tolerance of , use a stopping procedure based on the absolute error.
Use the improved Euler’s method subroutine with step size h = 0.2 to approximate the solution toat the points x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, …., 2.0. Use your answers to make a rough sketch of the solution on [0, 2].
