Question

Transcribed Image Text:4th Order Rurka-Kutta Method
This assignment will expand your skills on using Excel to perform some numerical
analyses and plot your results. It is a means to familiarize you more with basic features in
the spreadsheet.
Preliminaries:
a. Start a new file called R-K.xlsx (for this exercise, you may use the work you did
in class but please be careful not to delete what you already have)
b. Plan ahead
Exercise 1:
Using the 4" Order Ruga-Kutta Method that we recently learned, evaluate the following
ordinary differential equation (ODE):
dx
f(t, x) =
= x+t²
dt
At the initial position, X= 0, the time is = 0.1 minutes. Using a step size of, h = 0.05,
what is the time spent to reach a position that is equal to 17 (Hint: use a O and b 1)
Exercise 2
Using the 4th Order Ruga-Kutta Method, solve the following problem:
The concentration of a certain non-reactive (conservative) chemical is given as a function
of time by:
de
f(t,c) =
= 30-3c
Where c is the concentration and t is time. At the initial time, to, the concentration in the
tank is C. 50 g/L. Using a step size of, h — 0.1875 min, what is the concentration of this
chemical after 3 minutes?
