I need help with this please.
I think I am right in saying that to solve the following formula I need to use transposition but I am struggling with it. I have looked at similar formulas and still not able to do it with this one. The question is as follows:
The sag at the centre of a wire of length l supported at two points a distance d apart is given by the formula
s = sqrt 3d(l - d)/8
Find the length of wire to the nearest mm when d = 1.62m and s - 82cm.
I am ok with converting cm and m to mm but just struggling with the transposition.
Thanks
