- How to find the equation that relates two physical variables
- SITUATION 1: You don't know the coefficient c, but you do know the power p.
You are
asked to find experimentally the value of some constant quantity.
What you need to do in this case works just as well for equations that are not power laws, provided that you are given this equation.

- SITUATION 2: You don't know the coefficient c, and you don't know the power p, either.
