ME-261: Numerical Analysis

Topic – Roots of Equation

Problem 1:

Using the Bisection method, find a root of f(x) = cos(x) – x = 0 in the interval [0, 1]

until the percent relative error becomes less than 1%.

Problem 2:

Solve the following equation iteratively using ‘Regula Falsi’ method accurate up to

four decimal places within the bracket [1, 3]: sin x – x + 2 = 0

Problem 3:

Use the False-Position method to find the root of f(x) = cos(x) – x = 0 in the interval

[0, 1] correct to at least four significant figures. If the above problem is solved using

the Bisection method, predict how many iterations will be needed for the required

accuracy?
ME-261: Numerical Analysis (Extra Problems)

Topic – Roots of Equation

Problem 1:

A simplified model of the suspension of a car consists of a mass m, a spring with

stiffness k, and a dashpot with damping coefficient c. A bumpy road can be modeled

by a sinusoidal up-and-down motion of the wheel y = Ysin(ωt). From the solution of

the equation of motion for this model, the steady-state up-and-down motion of the

car (mass) is given by x = Xsin(ωt − ϕ). The ratio between amplitude X and amplitude

Y is given by:

X mc3
=
Y k (k − m2 ) + (c) 2

Assuming m = 2000 kg, k = 500 kN/m, and c = 38×103 Ns/m, determine the

frequency ω for which X/Y = 0.2. Rewrite the equation such that it is the form of a

polynomial in ω and solve using the False position method using ωl = 2.0 and ωu =

10.0. Show three iterations.

Problem 2:

Use the Bisection method to find a root of 3x + sin(x) – ex = 0 in the interval [0, 1]

to four correct decimal places. Also comment on the convergence pattern.
