Given information

1. The diver of mass  stands at the end of a diving board with length  and linear density 
 
2. The board takes on the shape of a curve
 
3. The differential equation of the curve is given as
where  and    are positive constants that depend on the material of the board and   is the
acceleration due to gravity.
 
4. The diagram of the diver and the cantilever board. 

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

We have from the principle of antiderivatives

   

 

Please note arbitrary constants are in both equations above as
