asymptotically approaches a maximum value called the terminal velocity v_t:

For an object falling and released at relative-velocity v = v_i at time t = 0, with v_i < v_{t, is also defined in terms of the hyperbolic tangent function:}

For v_i > v_t, the velocity function is defined in terms of the hyperbolic cotangent function:
