Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Using Euler's Method, approximate the solution for the differential equation dy/dx = -2y with an initial condition y(0) = 1. Assume a step size of 0.1 for 5 steps.

💡 Hint: Use the formula: y_n+1 = y_n + h*f(x_n, y_n) for computation.

Question 2

Compare the approximated results obtained from Euler's Method and Runge-Kutta Method for the same differential equation dy/dx = -2y with initial conditions. Discuss accuracy and computational efficiency.

💡 Hint: Think about how each method handles the derivatives involved and what that means for the approximations.
