What about drag forces, which are proportional to the velocity squared? It would undoubtedly take this form:
∫ bF • r'(t) dt
except this time, I have absolutely no idea how to express bF. My book doesn't cover it at all (meaning I probably don't need to know this, but I really do want to). My book mentions F=-bv, but only provides treatment for constant velocity. How would you treat both?
