Homework Statement
I'm trying to find the function, that describes the velocity approaching to a terminal velocity.
Homework Equations
F_{net}=mg-\frac{1}{2}\rho v^2 AC_d
The Attempt at a Solution
F=ma
a=F/m
\dot{v}=F/m=g-\frac{1}{2m}\rho v^2 AC_d
\dot{v}=g-kv^2
\dot{v}+kv^2=g
(k and g are constants)
I have very few knowledge of DEs and it seems hard to guess a solution.
Can somebody help me?
