A projectile is fi red downward with initial speed v 0 in an experimental fluid and experiences

Question:

A projectile is fi red downward with initial speed v0 in an experimental fluid and experiences an acceleration a = σ − ηv2, where σ and η are positive constants and v is the projectile speed. Determine the distance traveled by the projectile when its speed has been reduced to one-half of the initial speed v0. Also, determine the terminal velocity of the projectile. Evaluate for σ = 0.7 m/s2, η = 0.2 m−1, and v0 = 4 m/s.
