A small sphere of mass m is released from rest in a viscous fluid. The sphere is subject to a resistive force F = -bv, where v is its velocity and b is a positive constant. Which of the following expressions represents the sphere’s velocity as a function of time t?

A

v(t) = (mg/b)(1-e^(-b/mt))

B

v(t) = (mg/b)(e^(bt/m)-1)

C

v(t) = (mg/b)e^(-bt/m)

D

v(t) = (mg/b)(1-e^(-bt/m))
