Assignment 1
Due: Thursday, Sept. 17, 2020 at class time
For these problems, calculate all results to 8 significant figures. Be sure to follow the RULES on homework submissions.
Problem 1:
i) page 23 #5a find the percent relative error
ii) Determine a base ten fractional expression (you know, like 3/65 or 88/153 or 5/9 or...) equal to 0.101101101101...
Problem 2: page 50 #2 parts a -> e
Problem 3: page 61 #6
Problem 4: page 85 #6 parts a -> c
Problem 5: page 86 #10
Assignment 2
Due: Thursday, Oct. 15, 2020 at class time
For these problems, calculate all results to 8 significant figures. Be sure to follow the RULES on homework submissions.
Problem 1: page 138 #13
Problem 2: page 153 #6
Problem 3: page 165 #6 Answer the question in the text, i.e. produce three iterates using both methods, but also solve the system using iteration, either Jacobi or Gauss-Seidel, iterating until you are reasonably close to the solution or until you guess the solutions after producing these iterates?
Problem 4: Apply fixed-pt iteration to f(x,y) = x2+xy-10 = 0 and g(x,y) = y+3xy2-57 = 0. First, rewrite the 1st equation by isolating the xy term and then dividing by y; rewrite the 2nd equation by isolating the y term. Iterate twice starting at (1.5, 3.5) to see what happens. Then, rewrite the first eqn by isolating the x2 term and taking the square root; rewrite the 2nd eqn by isolating the 3xy2 term, then dividing by 3x and taking the square root. Again start at (1.5, 3.5) and iterate twice...then guess the answer and check it.
Problem 5: page 182 #7

Assignment 4
Due: ??????, 2020 at class time
For these problems, calculate all results to 8 significant figures. Be sure to follow the RULES on homework submissions.
Problem 1: page 349 #3
Problem 2: Compute approximations to ∫10 sin(√ X )dx using the Trapezoidal rule with h = 1 and then again with h = 1/2. Then use Simpson's 1/3 with h = 1/2 and h = 1/4. How do they compare?
Problem 3: Do the same computation as in #2 but using Boole's rule with h = 1/4. Which is the best approximation now?
Now, for the next two questions, let O.D.E. refer to y' = yt-2, y(1) = 2
Problem 4: For the O.D.E., using h = 0.5, compute an approximation to y(1.5) using Euler's method, then Heun's method, then the Midpoint method.
Problem 5: Now use RK-4 with h = 0.5 to generate an approximation to the solution to O.D.E. at t = 1.5 and t = 2.0. Now calculate the percent relative error to the exact solution given by y = 2e(t-1)/t at t = 2.0. Was it
good???! (ans: yes)
