The strength of a beam is proportional to the square of its thickness

Answer»

S(h) = K*h^2

The STRENGTH of a beam is PROPORTIONAL to the square of the THICKNESS means the strength is equal to the thickness squared, which is h squared (as its thickness equals h) MULTIPLIED by the proportionality constant k.

N(L) = k/L^2.

When "is proportional to" appears there will will always be a multiplication of a proportionality constant .

"Inverse square of L" means 1/L^2.
