    Solving Second Order Differential Equations using Runge Kutta

    Homework Statement In aerodynamics, one encounters the following initial value problem for Airy’s equations: y''(x) + xy = 0, y(0) = 1, y'(0) = 0 Using the Runge-Kutta method with h=0.005 and determine values between x=0 and x=10 sufficient to sketch the relationship...
