Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Using the ODE dy/dx = y^2 - x at y(0) = 0, apply Heun's method with h = 0.1 to approximate y(0.2).

💡 Hint: Repeat the steps twice in the same way as described in the section.

Question 2

When given an initial value problem y' = e^(-t) - y with an initial condition y(0) = 1, use Heun’s method, h = 0.5, to approximate y at t = 0.5.

💡 Hint: Remember to calculate e^(-t).
