Objective: To simulate the motion of a simple pendulum using MATLAB by solving a second-order ODE that represents a simple pendulum with damping. Introduction: In engineering, ODE's usually describes the behaviour of a system. In this case, our ODE describes the transient behaviour of the simple pendulum. A simple…

Discretization basics Numerical derivative vs. exact derivative
Objective: Write a program that compares the first, second and fourth-order approximations of the first derivative against the analytical/exact derivative. Given Function : `f(x) = sin(x)/x^3` First derivative of the function is `f'(x) = (x^3 cos(x) - sin(x)*3x^2)/x^6` The function is computed at `x = pi/3` First-order…
