Question

If you were to plot y versus m using the equation y = (g/k) m yo, how would you calculate the value for k?

Answer 1

Equation is given as;

y = (g/k) yo

To find the value of “k”, divide both sides of the equation with yo;

y/yo = (g/k)yo/yo

it implies that;

y/yo = (g/k)

Now following steps will obtain the value of “k” as;

ky/yo = g

ky = gyo

k = gy0/y
