A metal ring of radius r and mass M falls in a magnetic field, in which the vertical component of induction depends on the height h according to the law B(h) = B0(1 - ah), where a is some constant. The plane of the ring when falling is horizontal, the ohmic resistance of the ring is equal to R. Neglecting the inductance of the ring, find the dependence of the speed of its fall on time.
