I am in the middle of finding a general solution for an equation . However I am stuck here:

c^2 ∫ dv/ (v^2 -c^2) = ∫ g dt

I know Partial diiferentiation would be the best approach however I cannot really get started. Help appreciated

Hi Jamiey1988! :smile:

(try using the X2 tag just above the Reply box :wink:)

Are you trying to integrate ∫ dv/(v2 - c2) ?

Either use partial fractions, or use a trig substitution. :smile:
