Hi guys
I need help solving the following differential equation for air resistance
d^2s/dt^2 + R ds/dt = g
Where g = gravity I presume and R = k/m where k = resistance constant
Using my limited knowledge I think that the auxiliary equation for this is
Y^2+ RY = 0
Y = 0 or R
General Solution
S = A + Be^Rt
Which log graph would i need to plot to work out resistance constant.
thanks a lot
