 Speed-radius attractor of an accreting raindrop

For the accreting raindrop with quadratic drag, set $q=v^2/a$ and $B=7c/8+3k/4$. Its exact equation is $\dot{q}=2(v/a)(g-Bq)$. Dividing by $\dot{a}=cv/4$ gives $q(a)=g/B+(q(a_0)-g/B)(a_0/a{)}^{7+6k/c}$. Thus $q$ stays between its positive initial value and positive equilibrium. Since $d\sqrt{a}/dt=c\sqrt{q}/8$, the radius grows without finite-time divergence and tends to infinity. The power correction then vanishes, proving both limits. Positive drag makes the limiting acceleration strictly less than $g/7$.
