Calculating Drag Force on Boat: Speed as Function of Time
F = -kv2 A fishing boat of mass m moves through the water in the +x direction. At time = 0 and x=0 it shuts its engines off and begins to drift. It experiences drag according to the above equation, calculate the boat's speed as a function of time. I've tried taking F = ma so a = -kv2/m...- datapirate42
