I'm unsure how to begin and solve this question. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

The Second Order Runge-Kutta Scheme is a numerical method used to solve ordinary differential equations (ODEs). It is an improvement upon the basic Euler method and is more accurate for solving ODEs with a small step size.
The Second Order Runge-Kutta Scheme works by using two approximations of the derivative at different points within the interval of interest. These approximations are then combined to get a more accurate estimate of the solution at the next time step.
The Second Order Runge-Kutta Scheme has several advantages over other numerical methods for solving ODEs. It is more accurate than the basic Euler method and is also more stable, meaning it can handle a wider range of ODEs without producing wildly inaccurate results.
Like any numerical method, the Second Order Runge-Kutta Scheme has its limitations. It is most effective for solving ODEs with a small step size, and may not be as accurate for larger step sizes. It also requires more computational resources compared to simpler methods such as the Euler method.
The accuracy of the Second Order Runge-Kutta Scheme can be improved by using a smaller step size, or by using a higher order version of the scheme such as the Fourth Order Runge-Kutta method. It is also important to carefully choose the initial conditions and step size to ensure the best possible accuracy for a given ODE.
