Problem 1.1: Newton’s second law can be expressed as F = ma (1) where F is the net force acting on the body, m mass of the body, and a the acceleration of the body in the direction of the net force. Use Eq. (1) to determine the mathematical model, i.e., governing equation of a free-falling body. Consider only the forces due to gravity and the air resistance. Assume that the air resistance is linearly proportional to the velocity of the falling body. Solution: From the free-body-diagram ...
