    How Does Vertical Distance y(t) Satisfy the Given Differential Equation?

    2. If y(t) is the vertical distance traveled at time t, then the same reasoning as used in Problem 1shows that v2= (2gy)/(1+I*) at any time. Use this result to show that y satisfies the differential equation dy/dt=sqrt(2g/(1+I*))*(sin alpha)*sqrt(y) where a is the angle of inclination of...
