Alright.. i don't know if it's right though.. like i said, i'm taking Edexcel, not Cambridge:)
I'm sorry i'm late, the internet stopped working :/

btw, when ur done, please explain it to me too.. its bothering me now, i can't study anything else
Farru here u go!

dy/dx = (y^2 +4)/xy
dx/dy = xy/(y^2 +4)
1/x dx/dy = y/(y^2+4)
1/x dx = y/(y^2+4) dy
∫1/x dx = ∫y/(y^2+4) dy

i think u know how to integeate..if not tell me and i will teach u too but here is the rest
ln x = 1/2ln(y^2+4) + c
sub the values of x and y and u will get c = -1/2ln4

ln x = 1/2ln(y^2+4) -1/2ln4
ln x + 1/2ln 4 = 1/2 ln(y^2+4)
2ln x + ln 4 = ln (y^2+4)
ln (4x^2) = ln (y^2+4)
4x^2 = y^2 + 4
y^2 = 4x^2-4

thats it!!

thats it!!
but iKhaled what i learnt was to bring all the x values on one side all the y values on one side...u guys learnt a different method or is it a totally different topic?

Oh wait, i take that reply back.. iget what you're doing:)
Thanks a lot!! Jazak Allahu Khair brother!!!:)
and Farru i'm really sorry for being useless...:notworthy:

nope thats the method..u put x on one side and y on the other side thats the separate integrals and thats what i did see..

1/x dx = y/(y^2+4) dy

u still dont get it ?

Thank you so much..
I know the integration part, I was stuck in making ysq the subject.. :/
and Jazak Allah.. :) :) :)

bother? you aren't bothering me :)

so first thing is writing the forces so that you wouldn't get confused by them, as the 5.5 N and the W N are pulling the particle upwards.
then draw a line in the middle of the right angle to make 2 letter Z (one from AP1X to the line and the other from CP2X to the line) and label the angles AP1X with a symbol and CP2X with another symbol, so now you have the angle AP1X equal to the left side of the line you drew and CP2X is the same as the right side of the line.

so lami says that 7.3/sin(90) = 5.5/sin(AP1X) = W/sin(CP2X)

so using cross-multiplication (5.5 x sin(90))/7.3 = 48.9 (angle CP2X)

angle AP1X = 90 - 48.9 = 41.1

so angle AP1X= 41.1


then to get W you do the same but you use the angle 41.1 so
(sin(41.1) x 7.3)/sin(90) = 4.8

so W= 4.8

did you get it now? if you want me to scan the paper I solved it on i don't mind ;)

But I thought we use Lami's rule when we have coplanar forces.
And how can you find angle CP2X first since we have 7.3/sin90 = 5.5/sinAP1X = W/sinCP2X
you did sinCP2X= (5.5xsin90)/7.3 right ? But this should be for angle AP1X. because 5.5 is its opposite force.

I'd be grateful if you showed me your workings possibly with a diagram. Thanks a lot :)
