Why do I get error undefined function or variable?

% Runge Kutta
h = 0.1;
t1 = 0:h:50;
n = length(t1);
v1 = zeros(1,n);
v1(1)=0;
for i = 1:n-1
k1 = velocity1(t1(i),v1(i));
k2 = velocity1(t1(i)+h/2,v1(i)+0.5*k1*h);
k3 = velocity1(t1(i)+h/2,v1(i)+0.5*k2*h);
k4 = velocity1(t1(i)+h,v1(i)+k3*h);
v1(i+1) = v1(i) + (k1+2*k2+2*k3+k4)*h/6;
if ( abs(v1(i+1))<0 || ~isreal(v1(i+1)) )
tf = t1(i);
break
end
end
vel1_RK4 = v1(1:i);
t1_RK4 = t1(1:i);
h = 0.1;
t2 = 50:h:330;
n = length(t2);
v2 = zeros(1,n);
v2(1) = 10;
for i = 1:n-1
k1 = velocity2(t2(i),v2(i));
k2 = velocity2(t2(i)+h/2,v2(i)+0.5*k1*h);
k3 = velocity2(t2(i)+h/2,v2(i)+0.5*k2*h);
k4 = velocity2(t2(i)+h,v2(i)+k3*h);
v2(i+1) = v2(i) + (k1+2*k2+2*k3+k4)*h/6;
if ( abs(v2(i+1))<0 || ~isreal(v2(i+1)) )
tf = t2(i);
break
end
end
vel2_RK4 = v2(1:i);
t2_RK4 = t2(1:i);

You have to define the variables velocity1 ..did you define those?
It seems velocity1 & velocity2 variables are not defined.

you haven't define some variable in your code. these error occur when compiler trying to access a function or variables and it is not defined. Do check your code and see if all variable are properly declared. From the first look, "velocity" does seems like not defined. check other variable too.
