Course Name: Introduction to Numerical Methods Date: 26 April 2021

Course Code: MA 192002 Max Marks: 50.

Instructions: 1. Students are required to submit only handwritten answer sheets through a single
PDF by taking sequential photos. The answer sheets should be sent by MIS.
2. Mention (a) Enrollment No. (b) Page No. (page/ total page, e.g. 1/10, 2/10, ) (c) Exam Date (d)
Year & Semester (e) Name and (f) Subject Details, on top right corner of each page of answer sheet.
3. Course instructor may penalize the student by deducting the marks, if answer is
adjudged to be copied during assessment. This act shall be recorded as UFM (unfair
means).
4. Assume suitable data wherever essential and mention it clearly.
5. Writing appropriate units, nomenclature, and drawing neat sketches/schematics wherever required
is an integral part of the answer.

Attempt all questions.

3. For solving the problem dt = f (t, y) = λy, y(0) = 1, λ < 0, we have following method:

yn+1 = yn + p1 h(f (tn , yn )), yn+2 = yn+1 + p2 h(f (tn+1 , yn+1 )), n = 0, 2, 4, ...,

where p1 , p2 > 0 and p1 + p2 = 2. Show that this method is stable for − p12p2 < λh < 0 &
1 − √12 < p1 , p2 < 1 + √12 . [8]
