1. The following system of linear equations is generated by applying the Kirchhoff's law to the
circuit shown in Fig. 1,

−25𝐼1 − 4𝐼3 + 29𝐼4 = 100

55𝐼1 − 25𝐼4 = −200

−37𝐼3 − 4𝐼4 = −250

Figure 1: Circuit diagram


where the I’s are the current in the loop in Amperes. Solve the above system of linear equations
using the Gauss-Seidel method. Write numerical values with an accuracy of up to three decimal
places and perform at least five iterations. [for initial guess, take I1(0) = I3(0) = I4(0) = 1]

2. Determine the roots of the following system of non-linear equations using Newton-Raphson
methods:
𝑥2 + 𝑦2 = 4
𝑒𝑥 + 𝑦 = 1

Use initial guesses as [x(0), y(0)] = [1, −1.7]. Perform only one set of iteration.

3. An investigator has reported the data tabulated below for an experiment to determine the growth
rate of bacteria, k (per day), as a function of oxygen concentration, c (mg/L). It is known that
such data can be modeled by the following equation:

𝑘𝑚𝑎𝑥 𝑐 2
𝑘=
𝑐𝑠 + 𝑐 2
where cs and kmax are the parameters. Use linear regression analysis to determine these parameters,
and predict the growth rate at c = 2 mg/L.

C (mg/L) 0.5 0.8 1.5 2.5 4.0 6.0


k (per day) 1.1 2.4 5.3 7.6 8.9 10.9

Problem 1:
Three masses are suspended vertically by a series of identical springs where mass-1 is at the top
and mass-3 is at the bottom. From the free-body diagram of each mass, we get the following system
of linear equations,
𝑘1 𝑥1 + 𝑘2 (𝑥1 − 𝑥2 ) = 𝑚1 𝑔
𝑘2 (𝑥2 − 𝑥1 ) + 𝑘3 (𝑥2 − 𝑥3 ) = 𝑚2 𝑔
𝑘3 (𝑥3 − 𝑥2 ) = 𝑚3 𝑔

If g = 9.81 m/s , m1 = 2 kg, m2 = 3 kg, m3 = 2.5 kg, and the k’s = 10 N/m, where mi = Mass of
block i, k = spring constant and g = gravitational acceleration, then solve the above system of
linear equations using Gauss-Seidel method with Successive Over Relaxation (SOR). Perform
up to 10 iterations and take λ = 1.2. Write numerical values with an accuracy of up to three decimal
places. Assume any suitable initial guess.

Problem 2:
Determine the roots of the following non-linear system of equations using Newton-Raphson
method:
𝑥𝑦𝑧 − 𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 = 1.34
𝑥𝑦 − 𝑧 2 = 0.09
𝑒 𝑥 − 𝑒 𝑦 + 𝑧 = 0.41

Assume any suitable initial guesses and perform two sets of iteration. Write numerical values with
an accuracy of up to three decimal places.
