Takes an input argument and calculate the work done by


The work done (in Joule) to compress the piston shown in the figure is defined as:

451_calculate the work done by integration.png

1137_calculate the work done by integration1.png

Where, Pressure, P(s) = k1 s + k2

                Area, A = π r2

            Radius, r = 5 x 10-2 m

            k1 = 5 x 105 Nm-3

            k2 = 105 Nm-2

            s0 = 0 m

            s1 = 5 x 10-2 m

Now answer the following questions using Matlab:

(a) Create a function file called trap_abc123.mthat (i) takes an input argument n, (ii) calculate the work done by integration using n segment trapezoidal rule and (iii) return the resulting work done.(Note: abc123 is your respective ID)

(b) Create a source file called exam_abc123.mthat calls the function for n = 1, n = 11, n = 21, n = 31, n = 41 and n = 51

(c) Calculate the exact integrationresult using Matlab symbolic tools and calculate the errors in calculating work done for n = 1, n = 11, n = 21, n = 31, n = 41 and n = 51

(d) Plot the work done versus n and error versus n
