In an experiment to determine the viscosity of some oil, a ball is dropped into the oil. The position of the ball is given by the formula y(t) = A + Bt +C e−Dt, where y is given in m, and t is the time in s. At t = 0, y(0) = 0.1 m, the y component of the velocity is zero and the y component of the acceleration is ay(0)= 0.04 m/s2. As t approaches infinity, the y component of the velocity approaches vy(∞) = 0.5 m/s.   What is the value of A, C, and D? Please show work so I can understand.
