(304 1.12 ) 0.

25 d 2
Tetmajers formula is defined as n
F
lk
Tetmajers formula is valid 10 105 where
0.25 d

Where n=safety factor, d=diameter, F=load, lk=buckling length

I assume that metric units are to be used.

An attempt to solve this equation for lk :

(304 1.12 ) 0.25 d 2

1: n
F

2: n F (304 1.12 ) 0.25 d 2

nF
3: 304 1.12
0.25 d 2

nF
4: 1.12 304
0.25 d 2

nF
5: 1.12 304
0.25 d 2

1.12 lk nF
6: 304
0.25 d 0.25 d 2

nF
304
7:
1.12 lk 0.25 d 2
0.25 d

nF
304 0.25 d 2 1
8: lk
0.25 d 1.12

If you use d=0.056 m and F=100000 N the result is negative.
