Beeken-FirstOrderDifferentialEquations-AirResistance
Beeken, Paul. First Order Differential Equations as applied to Air Resistance. Byram Hills High School.
This is a nice and gentle introduction to air resistance modeling.
From the Introduction
"The problem of air resistance as applied to dynamics may seem like your first exploration of a differential equation but as we shall see it is a subject you have seen, albeit indirectly, before. Differential equations associated with speed dependent friction are similar to many others we will encounter in this class so it is worth exploring it in detail. I also hope to lay the groundwork for examining other types of differential equations that don’t lend themselves to neat solutions."
