ball weighing 1 pound is thrown vertically upward from a point 6 ft above the surface of the earth with an initial velocity of 18 ft/sec. As it rises it is acted upon by air resistance that is numerically equal to (1/16)*v (in pounds) where v is the velocity (in feet per second).
How high will the ball rise?


NOTE: Before you attempt to answer, please take into consideration that this problem is for a Differential Equations class (NOT A PHYSICS CLASS) so please help me accordingly. Thank you! :)

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the 40-ft level in an elevator shaft with an initial velocity (straight up) of 50 ft/sec. At the same instant, far below, an open-platform elevator passes the 10-ft level in the elevator shaft, moving upward with a constant velocity of 5 ft/sec. Determine (a) when and where the ball will hit the elevator, (b) the relative velocity of the ball with respect to the elevator when the ball hits the elevator.
