    Make k the subject

    F/k = (m*r*(w^2))/k-(w^2)*(M+m)

    this might make it more understandable

    thank you for ur time and effort ^_^

    It would be a lot of help if you could give us what type of methods to use and what kind of class is this problem excerpt from?

    this is a physic question (rotating imbalance) as to find the value of k .. I'm dont know which method to use to make the whole equation into k = "blah blah"

    The_Jelly NSFW? :P

    I never took physics before but if you're just re-arranging to make k=w/e then isn't it just F/(m*r*(w^2))/k-(w^2)*(M+m)=k ?

    F/(m*r*(w^2))/k-(w^2)*(M+m)=k

    there is another k needs to be rearranged to form only 1 k

    Ahh, I missed that. Is this txt book stuff? If it is try the solutions manual, it should show you how they do it step by step.

    [​IMG] Just to reconfirm that answer. My end result is slightly different but it should be the same due to the signs

    k=(m*r*(w^2)-f)/w^2*(M+m)

    thats what me and my friend worked out ><

    thank you for everyone 's time and contribution spent for me ^_^

    Oddly i kept smashing my head against the walls and table .. suddenly the light bulb switched one *imaginary* the answer finally hit me ...

    k = F*(w^2)*(M+m) / F - m*r*(w^2)
