theta method is a numerical method for solving ODE ( y'(t) = f(t, y(t)) ) given by

(y_{n+1} - y_{n})/ h = \Theta * f (t_{n+1}, y_{n+1}) + (1 - \Theta) * f (t_{n}, y_{n}).

In particular, for \Theta = 0 it is the explicit Euler method (i.e. the forward Euler method), \Theta = 1/2 is the trapezoidal rule.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

What is the definition of a tangent function?

Tangent (theta) is defined as sine (theta) divided by cosine (theta). In a right triangle, it is also defined as opposite (Y) divided by adjacent (X).


Does the angle have an affect on the pendulum?

Yes. The derivation of the simple formula for the period of the pendulum requires the angle, theta (in radians) to be small so that sin(theta) and theta are approximately equal. There are more exact formulae, though.


How do you find the formula for are of triangle?

the formula for the arc of a triangle is the arc length is equal to the angle times the radius. s=arc length theta=angle made y length of the arc lenth r=radius s=theta times radius


What is definition of figure of merit of galvanometer?

It is the amount if current it takes for unit deflection in the given galvanometer. k = I/theta Where k is the figure of merit, I is the current supplied and Theta equals the number of divisions of deflection.


How do solve sin 2 theta - square root of 3 theta- equals 0?

The only real solution is theta = 0For theta < 0 square root of 3 theta is not defined.For theta > 0, sin theta increases slower than 3*theta and so the sum is always negative.The only real solution is theta = 0For theta < 0 square root of 3 theta is not defined.For theta > 0, sin theta increases slower than 3*theta and so the sum is always negative.The only real solution is theta = 0For theta < 0 square root of 3 theta is not defined.For theta > 0, sin theta increases slower than 3*theta and so the sum is always negative.The only real solution is theta = 0For theta < 0 square root of 3 theta is not defined.For theta > 0, sin theta increases slower than 3*theta and so the sum is always negative.
