Question

An object with mass ? is dropped from rest and we assume that the air resistance is
proportional to the speed of the object. If ?(?) is the distance dropped after ? seconds,
then the speed is ? = ?′(?) and the acceleration is ? = ?′(?). If ? is the acceleration
due to gravity, then the downward force on the object is ?? − ??, where ? is a positive
constant, and Newton’s Second Law gives

dv
m- = mg - cv
dt
(a) Solve this as a linear equation to show that v = ²(1 - e-ct/m).
mg
(b) What is the limiting velocity?
(c) Find the distance the object has fallen after t seconds.
