A 320-lb object is released from rest 400 ft above the ground and allowed to fall under the influence of gravity. Assuming that the force in pounds due to air resistance is -20, where is the velocity
of the object in ft/sec, determine the equation of motion of the object. When will the object hit the ground? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 32 ft/sec and let xit) represent the distance
the object has fallen in t seconds.
Determine the enuation of motion of the object.
