Homework Statement
(i'm not sure if this is the correct forum please move it if incorrect)
my problem is with generally drawing direction fields - i don't really know what to do. i have notes but i can't make head nor tail of them. this is an example of a question concerning them:
Homework Equations
i know that if you stick the requirments into Newton's 2nd law adding constant k you get that equation, and i know to find the terminal velocity you integrate and find v, but i don't know how to sketch the direction field.
The Attempt at a Solution
i see that
dv/dt = -g + k/m
but this seems to be independant of both v and t so how do i plot it as a graph?
even if there were a v or t in that equation i still wouldn't be comfortable to draw the direction field because i don't know what to do >_>;
thanks
