To be completely honest, I'm not sure where you're going with that. I'm not sure how to show specifically that the speed varies with the height. What variable would I use to represent speed, and how do I incorporate the original equations that were given in the problem into this solution...

Homework Statement A gun is fired straight up. Assuming that the air drag on the bullet varies quadratically with speed. Show that speed varies with height according to the equations v^2 = Ae^(-2kx) - g/k (upward motion) V^2 = g/k - Be^(2kx) (downward motion) in which A and B are...
