Problema 9.1.24

Capitolo 9, Problema 9.1.24

Use Euler’s method with dx = 1/3 to estimate y(2) if y′ = x sin y and y(0) = 1. What is the exact value of y(2)?

Guida verificata passo dopo passo

Identify the differential equation and initial condition: \(\frac{dy}{dx} = x \sin y\) with \(y(0) = 1\).

Set the step size \(\Delta x = \frac{1}{3}\) and determine the number of steps needed to reach \(x = 2\). Since \(2 \div \frac{1}{3} = 6\), you will perform 6 steps.

Apply Euler's method iteratively using the formula: \(y_{n+1} = y_n + \Delta x \cdot f(x_n, y_n)\), where \(f(x, y) = x \sin y\). Start with \(x_0 = 0\) and \(y_0 = 1\).

For each step, calculate \(y_{n+1}\) by plugging in the current values of \(x_n\) and \(y_n\) into the derivative function, then update \(x_{n+1} = x_n + \Delta x\).

To find the exact value of \(y(2)\), solve the differential equation analytically by separating variables or using an appropriate method, then apply the initial condition to find the constant of integration.

Euler's Method

Euler's method is a numerical technique to approximate solutions of first-order differential equations. It uses a step size (dx) to incrementally estimate the value of the function by moving along the slope given by the derivative. This method is especially useful when an exact solution is difficult to find.

Solving Initial Value Problems

An initial value problem specifies the value of the unknown function at a starting point, allowing the differential equation to be solved uniquely. Here, y(0) = 1 provides the initial condition needed to apply Euler's method and to find the exact solution.

Exact Solution of Differential Equations

The exact solution involves finding an explicit formula for y in terms of x that satisfies the differential equation and initial condition. This often requires techniques like separation of variables or integrating factors, enabling comparison with numerical approximations.

Carbon monoxide pollution An executive conference room of a corporation contains 4500 ft³ of air initially free of carbon monoxide. Starting at time t = 0, cigarette smoke containing 4% carbon monoxide is blown into the room at the rate of 0.3 ft³/min. A ceiling fan keeps the air in the room well circulated and the air leaves the room at the same rate of 0.3 ft³/min. Find the time when the concentration of carbon monoxide in the room reaches 0.01%.

Sailing A sailboat is running along a straight course with the wind providing a constant forward force of 50 lb. The only other force acting on the boat is resistance as the boat moves through the water. The resisting force is numerically equal to five times the boat’s speed, and the initial velocity is 1 ft/sec. What is the maximum velocity in feet per second of the boat under this wind?
