?Terminal Velocity When a raindrop falls, it increases in size and so its mass at time
Chapter 8, Problem 51(choose chapter or problem)
Terminal Velocity When a raindrop falls, it increases in size and so its mass at time is a function of
, namely,
The rate of growth of the mass is
for some positive constant
. When we apply Newton's Law of Motion to the raindrop, we get
, where
is the velocity of the raindrop (directed downward) and
is the acceleration due to gravity. The terminal velocity of the raindrop is
. Find an expression for the terminal velocity in terms of
and
.
