A spherical raindrop falling through mist builds up mass. The mass accumlates at a rate proportional to its cross-sectional area and invers;ey proportional to its velocity, that is, dm/dt=k?r2/v, where r is the radius of the raindrop at a given time and v is the downard speed at the same time.Assuming the density P of the rain drop is a constant. Ignoring the resistance do to the fog and the air, calculate the instaneous acceleration of the raindrop as a function of v,r,P,g and k.

Software testing occurs near the end of the programming process. Because of this, if a project falls behind schedule, testing time is often reduced. Discuss the possible impacts of less-than-thorough testing. Topics might include company reputation, customer dissatisfaction, the company’s ability to sell new or updated products, etc. Discuss which is worse: releasing a product late or releasing it on time without fully testing it.
