Question
1. Consider the second order differential equation: where Y" is the second derivative and Y' the first derivative of Y with respect to time. a. Convert this second order equation into a pair of first-order equations by first assigning a new name to Y'. b. At t = 0, Y = 1.0 and Y,-1.0. Using a full step-size of ?-0.1 determine Y and Y, at t 0.1 secs and t = 0.2 secs, using the 4th order Runge-Kutta method. c. Evaluate the Collatz criterion at the end of the second full step and comment on the step size.Explanation / Answer
let Y'=p; so, y''=p'.
given equation is,
y''+(y')2/y=0
p'y+p2=0............will be the 1st order equation of 'p'.
where y'=p
