Exercise:
1. Find the cubic root of 5 using Secant method and Mullers method (x3-5=0). Plot number
of iteration needed against the estimated root in Mullers method and Secant method
toachieve a solution of a function where the maximum permissible error is e=10-5.
2. For the following R-L-C circuit, the capacitor is charged to voltage V0 with charge q0,
then the switch is turned on.
The differential equation for the charge of the capacitor is given by,
Page 2
Assume the charge must be dissipated to 1 percent of its original value (q/q0 = 0.01) in
t=0.05 s, with L = 5 H and C = 104 F. Find the required value of R using Mullers
method. Plot the value of estimated root after each iteration.
