    Changing V(x) to V(t): Chain Rule Application?

    You assume correct. This is what I was missing. I was able to perform the integration and solve for x and all is well. Thanks for the help!

    Changing V(x) to V(t): Chain Rule Application?

    I have a function for velocity, V in terms of position, x. The equation is of the form V(x) = a*x2+b*x+c. Initial conditions are x=0, t=0. How do I change from V(x) to V(t)? It seems this would be an application of the chain rule, dy/dx = dy/du * du/dx, but I'm struggling to adapt it to...

    Velocity as function of Displacement to Displacement as function of Time

    I've measured velocities of a particle at varying displacements and characterized the velocity as V(x) = 0.0002x^2 - 0.6484x + 885. You can see that I know velocity (V) as a function of displacement (x). Ultimately I want to end up with a function for displacement as a function of time (t)...
