(
A
and
B
are constants determined by a raindrop diameter of 1 mm and the
physical properties of air.)
Find the fall velocity at time
t
= 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 15.
*As the calculations are continued,
v
approaches 6.82. Therefore, the
velocity of a raindrop is about 6.82 m/s (24.6 km/h) when it reaches the ground.
Note: The fall distance from time
t
= 0 to 15 [s] is given by the following equation.

<Example 2>
A drop of rain falls against an air resistance proportional to the square of the fall
velocity. The velocity
v
at time
t
seconds after the start of the fall is given by the
