How to solve differential equation with absolute value?












2














I'm a newbie here, I want to solve this equation for my assignment:



mg - c x'[t] Abs[x'[t]] = m x''[t]


I'm using



DSolve[{mg - c x'[t] Abs[x'[t]] == m x''[t],x'[0]==0,x[0]==32000},x[t],t]


but Mathematica seems very slow to load.



Questions: is there any other way to solve the equation?



Edit: i've tried to change, but still doesn't work

    You should check the boundary conditions: x[0]== 32000 , x'[0] makes no sense!

If you substitute Abs[x'[t]]->Sqrt[x'[t]^2] mathematica can evaluate the ode



DSolve[{mg - c x'[t] Sqrt[x'[t]^2] == m x''[t] }, x[t], t]


Unfortunately the solution cannot be adapted to the inital conditions x'[0]==0, x[0]== 32000



workaraound



The ode only depends on x'[t],x''[t], the substitution x'[t]->v[t] and division by m gives



ode=9.81 - cdm  v[t] Sqrt[v[t]^2] ==   v'[t] (*g=9.81*)


ode only depends on parameters cdm=c/m , v0 and can be solved numerically



X = ParametricNDSolveValue[{ode,v[0] == v0 }, v, {t, 0, 10}, {v0, cdm}]
Plot[X[.0 , 1 ][t], {t, 0, 1}, PlotRange -> {0, Automatic}]
