Integrating 2m/(cx²) from x to 0

[Speags]

i need to intergrate this function
$$\frac{2mdx}{cx^2}$$
from x to 0

If you meant to write:
$$\int_x^{0} \frac{2m}{cx^2}dx$$
Then you've got the variable of integration in the limits of integration which is ...problematic.

It is bad practice, although it is often done, to use the same letter to represent the "dummy" variable of integration and as a variable outside the integral (as in one of the limits of integration).

If you meant
$$\int_x^0\frac{2mdt}{ct^2}$$

Then rewrite the t² in the denominator as t^-2:
$$\frac{2m}{c}\int_x^0t^{-2}dt$$

You still have a problem- that's an improper integral which will have serious difficulties at 0! This integral does not exist.
