3 Consider shooting a bullet of mass m to three different big blocks. The resistance of the first block is assumed to be proportional to the bullet speed, that for the second block is proportional to vž, and that for the third block is proportional to v². If you fire at these blocks one by one with the same initial speed of vo for your bullets, compute the farthest the bullet can travel in each of these all three cases. Note that the gravitational force for this problem is negligible.
