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.
