Freefall in Uniform Gravitational Field with Air Resistance (altitude)

Description

In Newtonian physics, free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it. In a Freefall in Uniform Gravitational Field with Air Resistance the air resistance is proportional to the square of the fall velocity and the the vertical position as a function of time is depended on the infinite terminal speed
