Hello,

I just whant to know what mathematical rule alows me to do this? I mean i think it is u-substitution, but i am not sure how it is done here? It is weird to me as it seems that ##dt## just cancel out and limits are changed...

$$
\int\limits_{0}^{t} \frac{dv}{dt} \cdot mv \gamma(v)\, dt = \int\limits_{0}^{v} mv \gamma(v)\, dv
$$

Integration by Substitution:
Suppose ##I## is an interval. Let ##g : [a,b] \to I## have continuous derivative. Let ##f : I \to \mathbb{R}## be continuous. Then
##\int_{g(a)}^{g(b)} f(x) \, dx = \int_{a}^{b} (f \circ g)(t) \, g'(t) \, dt##

This is a basic formula yes i know, but how does this solve my case?
 
"Integration by substitution" is, essentially, the "chain rule" reversed. It is valid because the chain rule for differentiation is valid.
