Using Maple to solve ODEs: set p equal to 1. use maple to create a function energy which can be used to find the energy at a time that it takes as an argument. use it to calculate the error in the energy at t=10, by comparing the calculated and initial (exact) energy. repeat the calculation but this time decreasing the step size by a factor of two. What happens to the error in the energy? decrease the step size again to confirm the relationship between the step size and the error.

Using Maple to solve ODEs
Set p equal to 1. Use Maple to create a function energy which can be used to find the energy at a time that it takes as an argument. Use it to calculate the error in the energy at t=10, by comparing the calculated and initial (exact) energy. Repeat the calculation but this time decreasing the step size by a factor of two. What happens to the error in the energy?
Decrease the step size again to confirm the relationship between the step size and the error.
