Hey,

If anyone could give me a hand with this q it would be much appreciated.

A particle is moving vertically downward in a medium which exerts a resistance to the motion which is proportional to the speed of the particle. The particle is released from rest at O, and at time t its position is at a distance x below O and its speed v. If the terminal velocity is V, show that gx + Vv = Vgt

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, pure coincidence. I was working through that exercise then so I recognised the question.
