The nonlinear pendulum is governed by the equations dv de g sin 0 dt dt Solve using a) forward Euler and b) backward Euler for L = 9 meters, At = 0.1 seconds, vo = 0.6 meters/second and 0, = 0. Integrate for 25 seconds and plot v as a function of t. Comment on your results. Note that if a scheme is implicit, you may have to iterate to convergence at each time step. Use your own judgement on how best to do this.
