Backward Divided Difference http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu
3
3 Definition. Slope at f(x) y x
4
http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu4 Backward Divided Difference
5
http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu5 Example Example : The velocity of a rocket is given by wheregiven in m/s andis given in seconds. Use backward difference approximation Of the first derivative of to calculate the acceleration at Use a step size of Solution:
6
http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu6 Example (contd.)
7
http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu7 Hence The exact value of can be calculated by differentiating as Example (contd.)
