Question

When the falling ball hits and deforms the foam arresting material, it has a velocity of v0. The
object's acceleration is a=g−k1v−k2y, where v is the particle speed in inches per second, y is the
penetration depth in inches, and k1 and k2 are positive constants, while the resistance of the
foam material to deformation is a function of penetration depth y and object speed v. Plot the
object's penetration depth y and velocity v as functions of time for k1 = 14 sec−1, k2 = 28 sec−2,
and v0 = 26 in./sec over the first five seconds. Calculate the time when the penetration depth
has reached 95% of its maximum value.
