- 1.
- Prediction is
(A Taylor series which in effect gives a polynomial expansion of f(t)around t=a, in terms of derivatives of successive powers of t.)
- 2.
-
There are alternative, equally valid answers, which use the symmetric
approximation to the derivatives.
- 3.
- If we use
-order Runge-Kutta then the error in a
given step will depend upon the step size raised to the
power, while the accumulated error will depend upon
the step size raised to the
power
- 4.
- When computing its
-order derivative, the noise
in the signal is amplified as the
-power of frequency.
Thus for the cases given and for frequency
,
this noise
problem will grow as
and
,
respectively.
