    Newtonian Mechanics - single particle

    I know this already too. I put in "a" because I don't have a way to put in alpha.

    Newtonian Mechanics - single particle

    Thats how i got to my answer for part a. I started with that and solved it to get F(x)=-ma^2nx^(-2n-1). This answer was also in the back of my book. I am stuck on part b and c.

    Newtonian Mechanics - single particle

    Homework Statement The speed of a particle of mass [m] varies with the distance[x] as v(x)=ax^(-n). Assume v(x=0)=0 at t=0. a)Find the force F(x) responsible b)Determine x(t) c)Determine F(t) Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution My solution to part a is F(x)=-ma^2nx^(-2n-1)...
