The atmosphere resists the motion with a
force of 3 lb for each ft/s of speed. Assuming
that the only other force acting on the object
is constant gravity, find its velocity v as a
function of t, and find its terminal velocity.

2. A 10 kg mass is given an initial velocity v0

0 near Earth’s surface. The only forces acting
on it are gravity and atmospheric resistance
proportional to the square of the speed.
Assuming that the resistance is 8 N if the
speed is 2 m/s, find the velocity of the object
as a function of t, and find the terminal
velocity.
