How to find $x(t)$ in:

60 Views Asked by At

Ok people, trying to fix my question before I have the following problem:

I need to find $ x(t) $ so I can evaluate it in $t=t_f$ integrating (with respect to $t$) $\int_0^{t_f}\int \ddot x(t) \, dt$ either numerically or not.

$\ddot{x} = x\dot{\alpha}^2 + k$ ; $k={}$constant

and

$\dot{\alpha}(t) = a+ bt $ ; $a,b ={}$constants

so in other words I need to integrate

$\ddot{x} = x( a+ bt )^2 + k$

do I need extra information to solve this or it can be done? thanks a lot.
