Step 1: Understand the problem. We are tasked with approximating the integral of f(x) = √(sin x) over the interval [1, 2] using Simpson's Rule with n = 20 subintervals. Simpson's Rule is a numerical integration method that uses parabolic approximations to estimate the area under a curve.
Step 2: Recall the formula for Simpson's Rule: \( S_n = \frac{\Delta x}{3} \left[ f(x_0) + 4f(x_1) + 2f(x_2) + 4f(x_3) + \dots + 4f(x_{n-1}) + f(x_n) \right] \), where \( \Delta x = \frac{b-a}{n} \), \( x_0, x_1, \dots, x_n \) are the subinterval points, and \( n \) must be even.
Step 3: Calculate \( \Delta x \). Since \( a = 1 \), \( b = 2 \), and \( n = 20 \), \( \Delta x = \frac{2-1}{20} = 0.05 \). The subinterval points are \( x_0 = 1, x_1 = 1.05, x_2 = 1.1, \dots, x_{20} = 2 \).
Step 4: Evaluate \( f(x) = \sqrt{\sin x} \) at each subinterval point \( x_0, x_1, \dots, x_{20} \). For example, \( f(x_0) = \sqrt{\sin(1)} \), \( f(x_1) = \sqrt{\sin(1.05)} \), and so on. These values will be used in the Simpson's Rule formula.
Step 5: Apply the Simpson's Rule formula. Substitute \( \Delta x = 0.05 \), the calculated \( f(x_i) \) values, and the coefficients (1 for \( f(x_0) \) and \( f(x_n) \), 4 for odd-indexed terms, and 2 for even-indexed terms) into the formula. Simplify the expression to approximate the integral.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Simpson's Rule

Simpson's Rule is a numerical method for approximating the definite integral of a function. It uses parabolic segments to estimate the area under a curve, providing a more accurate approximation than methods like the Trapezoidal Rule. The formula involves evaluating the function at evenly spaced points and applying weights to these values, which is particularly useful for functions that are smooth and continuous.

Definite Integral

A definite integral represents the signed area under a curve defined by a function over a specific interval [a, b]. It is calculated using the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, which connects differentiation and integration. The result of a definite integral is a number that quantifies the accumulation of quantities, such as area, over the interval.

Error Estimation in Numerical Integration

Error estimation in numerical integration involves determining how closely a numerical approximation, like Simpson's Rule, approximates the actual value of the integral. Theorem 8.1 likely provides a formula or method to estimate this error based on the function's behavior and the number of subintervals used. Understanding error estimation is crucial for assessing the reliability of numerical results.
