Question
A 3.1 kg object is initially at rest and is experiencing a net force of magnitude 4.7e^-t/2 N. As time approaches infinity, notice that the net force decays toward 0 N, which tells us that the acceleration is also dropping to 0 m/s^2 (and so the velocity is leveling off to a terminal speed). What is the terminal speed? (Ans.= 3.0 m/s)

Step 1

Solution:

Let net force acting on the body be dF

Since it is given that,

dF=4.7e-t/2N

Now, 

since, 

dF=ma=mdvdt

Then

mdvdt=4.7×e-t2mdv=4.7e-t2

As velocity v varies from 0 to terminal velocity (v), then time varies from 0 to , therefore,

m0vdv=4.70e-t2dtm[v-0]=4.7×e-t/20-12mv=4.7×-2 [0-1]3.1×v=4.7×2v=3.03m/s 3m/s

Terminal velocity on the mass=3m/s
