In Example 1, page 126, the improved Euler’s method approximation to \({\bf{e}}\) with step size \({\bf{h}}\)was shown to be \({\bf{\;}}{\left( {{\bf{1 + h + }}\frac{{{{\bf{h}}^{\bf{2}}}}}{{\bf{2}}}} \right)^{\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{h}}}}}\).First prove that the error \({\bf{e - \;}}{\left( {{\bf{1 + h + }}\frac{{{{\bf{h}}^{\bf{2}}}}}{{\bf{2}}}} \right)^{\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{h}}}}}\)approaches zero as \({\bf{h}} \to 0\). Then use L’Hopital’s rule to show the \(\mathop {{\bf{lim}}}\limits_{{\bf{h}} \to 0} \frac{{{\bf{error}}}}{{{{\bf{h}}^{\bf{2}}}}}{\bf{ = }}\frac{{\bf{e}}}{6} \approx 0.45305\).Compare this constant with the entries in the last column of Table 3.5.

By the use L’Hopital’s rule to show the \(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{{error}}{{{h^2}}} = \frac{e}{6} \approx 0.45305\). The closest value with the last value from table 3.5 for \(h = {10^{ - 3}}\,\,is\,\,0.45271\).

Step by step solution

01

Important hint.

For getting the solution apply L’hopital rule.

02

Prove that the error \({\bf{e - \;}}{\left( {{\bf{1 + h + }}\frac{{{{\bf{h}}^{\bf{2}}}}}{{\bf{2}}}} \right)^{\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{h}}}}}\) approaches zero as \({\bf{h}} \to 0\).As  \(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {\left( {1 + h} \right)^{\frac{1}{h}}} = e\)By using this formula

\(\begin{array}{c}\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \left( {e - {{\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{h}}}} \right)\\ = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} e - \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)^{\frac{1}{h}}}\\ = e - \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {\left( {{{\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{{h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}}}}}} \right)^{\frac{{h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}}}{h}}}\\ = e - \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {e^{\frac{{h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}}}{h}}}\end{array}\)

\(\begin{array}{c} = e - {e^1}\\ = 0\end{array}\)

03

Find the result by applying L’Hopital’s rule.

\(\begin{array}{c} = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{{{{\left( {e - \;{{\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{h}}}} \right)}^'}}}{{{{({h^2})}^'}}}\\ = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {\frac{{\left( { - \;{{\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{h}}}} \right)}}{{2h}}^'}\end{array}\)

04

Evaluate the result by the derivative of part in step 2.

\(\begin{array}{c}{\left( { - \;{{\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{h}}}} \right)^'} = - {\left( {{e^{\left( {\frac{1}{h}in{{\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{h}}}} \right)}}} \right)^'}\\ = - {e^{\left( {\frac{1}{h}in{{\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{h}}}} \right)}}\left( {\frac{{ - \ln \left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}}{{{h^2}}} + \frac{{2(h + 1)}}{{h(2 + 2h + {h^2}}}} \right)\\ = \left( {\frac{{ - \ln \left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}}{{{h^2}}} + \frac{{2(h + 1)}}{{h(2 + 2h + {h^2}}}} \right){\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)^{\frac{1}{h}}}\end{array}\)

05

Now Apply derivative part in step 2.

\( = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} {\frac{{\left( { - \;{{\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{h}}}} \right)}}{{2h}}^'}\)

\(\begin{array}{c} = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{{\left( {\frac{{ - \ln \left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}}{{{h^2}}} + \frac{{2(h + 1)}}{{h(2 + 2h + {h^2})}}} \right){{\left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{h}}}}}{{2h}}\\\frac{e}{2}.\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} - \frac{{\left( {\frac{{ - \ln \left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}}{{{h^2}}} + \frac{{2(h + 1)}}{{h(2 + 2h + {h^2})}}} \right)}}{h}\\\frac{e}{2}\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \left( { - \frac{{2h(h + 1) - \ln (\frac{{{h^2}}}{2} + h + 1)({h^2} + 2h + 2)}}{{{h^3}({h^2} + 2h + 2)}}} \right)\\ = \frac{e}{2}\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{{ - h - {h^2} + \left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right).\ln \left( {1 + h + \frac{{{h^2}}}{2}} \right)}}{{{h^3} + {h^4} + \frac{{{h^5}}}{2}}}\end{array}\)

By solving this and apply as \(h \to 0\).

\(\begin{array}{l} = \frac{e}{6}\\ \approx 0.45305\end{array}\)

06

Find the values of different values of \({\bf{h}}\).

For \(h = 1\) then \(\frac{{{\rm{error}}}}{{{h^2}}} = 0.21828\)

For \(h = {10^{ - 1}}\,\,{\rm{then}},\,\,\frac{{{\rm{error}}}}{{{h^2}}} = 0.42010\)

For \(h = {10^{ - 2}}\,{\rm{then}}\,\,\frac{{{\rm{error}}}}{{{h^2}}} = 0.44966\)

For \(h = {10^{ - 3}}\,{\rm{then}}\,\,\frac{{{\rm{error}}}}{{{h^2}}} = 0.45271\)

Therefore, the closest value with the last value from table 3.5 for \(h = {10^{ - 3}}\,{\rm{is}}\,\,0.45271\).

An object of mass 5 kg is given an initial downward velocity of 50 m/sec and then allowed to fall under the influence of gravity. Assume that the force in newtons due to air resistance is -10v, where v is the velocity of the object in m/sec. Determine the equation of motion of the object. If the object is initially 500 m above the ground, determine when the object will strike the ground.

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].

An object at rest on an inclined plane will not slide until the component of the gravitational force down the incline is sufficient to overcome the force due to static friction. Static friction is governed by an experimental law somewhat like that of kinetic friction (Problem 18); it has a magnitude of at mostN, where m is the coefficient of static friction and Nis, again, the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the surface on the object. If the plane is inclined at an angle a, determine the critical value0for which the object will slide ifa>ao but will not move fora<ao.

Transmission Lines.In the study of the electric field that is induced by two nearby transmission lines, an equation of the formdzdx+g(x)z2=f(x)arises. Letf(x)=5x+2andg(x)=x2. If z(0)=1, use the fourth-order Runge–Kutta algorithm to approximate z(1). For a tolerance ofε=0.0001, use a stopping procedure based on the absolute error.

Use Euler’s method (4) with h= 0.1 to approximate the solution to the initial value problem y'=-20y,y(0)=1, on the interval0⩽x⩽1 (that is, at x= 0, 0.1, . . . , 1.0).Compare your answers with the actual solutiony = e-20x.What went wrong? Next, try the step size h= 0.025 and also h= 0.2. What conclusions can you draw concerning the choice of step size?
