The force of resistance encountered by w...

The force of resistance encountered by water on a motor boat of mass `m` going in still water with velocity `v` is proportional to the velocity `vdot` At `t=0` when its velocity is `v_0,` then engine shuts off. Find an expression for the position of motor boat at time `t` and also the distance travelled by the boat before it comes to rest. Take the proportionality constant as `k > 0.`

A motor boat is moving in a straight line. Its velocity is V when the motor is shut off. If the retardation at any subsequent time is equal to the magnitude to its velocity at that time, find its velocity and the distance travelled in time t after the motor is shut off.
