Challenge: Solving Nonlinear Equations
In many scientific and engineering applications, you often encounter nonlinear equations that cannot be solved analytically and require numerical methods. The scipy.optimize module provides powerful algorithms to find the roots of such equations, enabling you to model and analyze real-world systems. In this challenge, you will apply your understanding of root-finding by solving a nonlinear equation that represents a physical process using scipy.optimize.root.
Swipe to start coding
Solve the nonlinear equation x^3 - 2x^2 + x - 1 = 0 to model a physical process. Use the provided physical_process_equation function for the equation.
- Use
scipy.optimize.rootto numerically find a root of the equation, starting from an initial guess of2.0. - Return the root value as a float from the
solve_nonlinear_equationfunction.
Remember to extract the root from the result object using .x[0] and convert it to a float before returning. Make sure your function returns a float, not an array.
