mathematical expression	nonlinear expression

Available identifiers

analytical solution to the free fall equation, including aerodynamic drag and assuming a uniform gravitational field

Defining Formula: $\begin{matrix} x (t) & = & x_{0} + v_{0} t - \frac{v_{\infty}^{2}}{g} \ln \cosh (\frac{g t}{v_{\infty}}) \\ v (t) & = & v_{0} + v_{\infty} \tanh (\frac{g t}{v_{\infty}}) \end{matrix}$
$v_{0}$ represents free fall initial velocity
$x_{0}$ represents free fall initial height
$t$ represents time
$g$ represents gravitational acceleration
$v_{\infty}$ represents free fall terminal velocity
$x$ represents free fall height
$v$ represents free fall velocity
