I'm not sure where this belongs but I figure that this is the right place for it.
The equation is m*v'(t)+[tex]\mu[/tex]*v(t)=f(t), where m is mass, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the drag coefficient, and f(t) is some random function. I am asked to find the values for v(t), <v2>, and <x2>
Uhh...
Okay the first part is an easy DE for which I got v(t) I got v(t)=Ce-[tex]\mu[/tex]t/m+(e-[tex]\mu[/tex]t/m)/m*[tex]\int[/tex]e[tex]\mu[/tex]t/mf(t)dt, where C is an arbitrary constant. I have no idea how to go about finding the other two answers. I am supposed to find them analytically but I am not sure how to go about this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
