    Differential equations and physics proof problem

    I've pretty much gotten this figured out at this point. I still have a couple questions at the end, though.=m\int^{t1}_{t0}vdv After the dt's cancel each other, the problem has a interval with the upper and lower bounds of t, but there's a dv now that the integral works with. Does that effect...

    Differential equations and physics proof problem

    You were correct, my bounds were wrong and I fixed them. And thank you for responding. This little bit you told me helps so much. It's late here, but I'll definitely take another look at this tomorrow.

    Differential equations and physics proof problem

    Homework Statement The kinetic energy K of an object of mass m and velocity v is given by K=1/2mv2. Suppose an object of mass m, moving in a straight line, is acted upon by force F=F(s) that depends on position s. According to Newton's Second Law F(s)=ma. A is acceleration of the object...
