Motion: Variable Mass

Q- a small body of mass m0 is projected vertically upwards in a cloud. Its initial speed is √(2gk). During its motion the body picks up moisture from the stationary cloud. Its mass at height x above the point of projection is m0(1+ ρx),where ρ is a +ve constant. Show that the greatest height h satisfies the equation
(1+ρh)3=(1+3kρ)
