Mzumbe University Falculty of Science and Technology MSS 224:numerical Analysis Tutorial Sheet 4

This document provides numerical integration and differentiation problems to solve using various approximation methods like the rectangular rule, trapezoidal rule, and Simpson's rules. It contains 14 problems involving approximating definite integrals using these numerical integration techniques, estimating derivatives from tables of function values, and computing velocities and accelerations from position-time data. Students are asked to apply techniques like the trapezoidal rule, Simpson's 1/3 rule, forward and central difference formulas to solve the problems and compare results.
