Q2
(a)
A miniature quadcopter flies in a curve line from one point to another. Suppose that
the path of the quadcopter from its initial hovering point to the final resting point is
described by:
y = 2.15 + 2.09x – 0.41x?,0 < x < 3.6
where x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from the point of release, and y is the
total distance (in meters) from the initial point.
(i)
Estimate the travels distance of the quadcopter from the moment of its
hovering point to the moment it rests, by using trapezoidal rule and
appropriate Simpson's rule with h = 0.4 given that the are length of the
curve line is:
2

Calculate the exact solution of the traveled distance by using a scientific
(ii)
calculator.
(iii)
Find the absolute error for each methods (from Q2(a)(i)).
