What is ∫v.dv?

The slide is wrong in that x is not constant, k is constant. Your formulation is correct up to ∫ v dv as pointed out by haruspex.

What is ∫v.dv?
It is an equation to solve kinematic equations.
a=dv/dt 1
v=dx/dt 2
Divide 1 by 2
a/v= dv/dt⋅dt/dx
a/v=dv/dx
a⋅dx=v⋅dv
Integrate LHS and RHS and you get 3rd equation of motion:
0x∫a⋅dx=uv∫v⋅dv
a⋅x0x=v2|uv
ax-0=v2/2-u2/2
2ax=v2-u2

So, am I correct or not ? This was quite an ambiguous reply..
If not, can you point out the mistake clearly and correction. Please?

Dr Dr news
Your LHS (2/3) k^2 x^(3/2) is OK the RHS as you have corrected is v^2 / 2 with an upper limit of 2u and a lower limit of u.
