Function with 3 variables (I know how two are related )

AI Thread Summary
To derive a function with only Z and F, the relationship k*u^3=F must be manipulated to eliminate u. First, k can be calculated using known values of F and u. The next step involves establishing a relationship between Z and u, which may require multiple data points for accuracy. Once this relationship is defined, u can be substituted out of the equation. A larger dataset will enhance the reliability of the resulting function.

Homework Statement


I know that
k*u^3=F
And I have data of when you change Z , so for example if Z is 3, then u is 5 and F is 3.
And i need to get the function with only Z and F without u, how do I do it?

The Attempt at a Solution


I made a function through excel with Z and F but because U also varies I need to somehow substract it from the function?

Is k a constant? Knowing F and u, you can calculate k. Then could you express u as a function of F?
How big is your data set? You could post it if not too big.
 
Use the data points to calculate k.

The next step would be to write an equation that relates z and u an substitute to eliminate u in the equation you give. However I think you need more than one data point to write an equation relating z and u.

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Figure 1 Overall Structure Diagram Figure 2: Top view of the piston when it is cylindrical A circular opening is created at a height of 5 meters above the water surface. Inside this opening is a sleeve-type piston with a cross-sectional area of 1 square meter. The piston is pulled to the right at a constant speed. The pulling force is(Figure 2): F = ρshg = 1000 × 1 × 5 × 10 = 50,000 N. Figure 3: Modifying the structure to incorporate a fixed internal piston When I modify the piston...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
