Question 1061683
If I assume it is 9/(24ln24); if it is (9/24)ln 24, then the first term is 1.192
That is 3/(8 ln 24)
That equals 0.1180
1.3=0.1180+v/24-v
1.182=v/24-v
multiply by 24 both sides
28.368=v-24v
-23v=28.368
v=-1.23 ft/sec. This is negative, which could be allowed since the velocity is downward, but it is too slow.  So, let me look at the last term as v/(24-v)
------------------
If the last term is (v/(24-v))
Then 1.182=v/(24-v)
multiply through by (24-v)
28.368-1.182v=v
28.368=2.182v
v=13.00 ft/sec, a positive result and one that makes sense given the velocity of a falling object is without friction 16 ft/sec.
