If I were to drop a ball down a fluid with high viscosity, the ball decelerates over time and then reaches close to terminal velocity.
How does displacement and velocity relates with time in terms of mathematical equation?
Am I right to say:
v(t) = Vterminal(1 - exp(-bt))
d(t) = Vterminal*t(1 - exp(-bt))
whereby b is proportional to the viscosity of the fluid.
The velocity-time equation looks about right but I'm not sure about displacement.
