I have attached a pic which really explains the formula and context of the problem.
I am trying to convert the formula in (b) below into feet.
If I could reproduce the answer with English units, I could move on and apply the formula to other situations, but the multiplicity of English units is really confusing me.
The English units I have are;
g = 32.17405
x = 3277.972
Next two from my tapes manufacturer,
A = 0.003" (but I think it should be 0.034 feet)
E = 29,700 KSI
M = 0 but could be 20 lbs.
Next one again from the manufacturer,
m = 0.0102 lbs/ft.
l = 3280.84
P(sub)0 = ? but my hundred foot tape would be 23 lbs.
