Sorry on iPhone

-1/k int (-kv/(g-kv)) dv

Sorry on iPhone

-1/k int (-kv/(g-kv)) dv

-1/k int (g-g-kv/(g-kv)) dv

Split then integrate

I got -1/k [ v + g/k ln (g-kv) + c

is that the answer?
I just did the integration as well and got that too. But I'm pretty sure the answers are wrong. You see, I did it where I expressed acceleration as vdv/dx before integrating. But the answers have for some reason just expressed acceleration as dv/dx. Hence, they must be wrong and so i'll say we r correct.

If anyone is wondering, the question is from the kings 2009 paper

You don't need to use vdv/dx, it requires a time (t) in the expression, so you need dv/dt. The solutions use dv/dt, I think you just read it wrong. It's the integral of 1/(g-kv) wrt v
