If the effects of atmospheric resistance are accounted for, a freely falling body has an acceleration defined by the equation a= 9.81[1 - v2 (10-4)] m/s2, where v is in m/s and the positive direction is downward. If the body is released from rest at a very high altitude, determine (a) the velocity when t = 5 s, and (b) the body’s terminal or maximum attainable velocity (as t → ∞).
