Why won't my plot work? (not elementwise issue)
Show older comments
Displaying T and d show this isn't an issue with elementwise operations (which is all I can find searching through the questions). Other plots have worked, so I know its not a graphics card issue, but I'm new to Matlab and can't see what's different from this plot and ones that have worked in the past. This is driving me insane, any help would be greatly appreciated.

lCable = 2;
lPole = 2;
m = 100;
g = 9.81;
w = m*g;
d = linspace(1,1.9,19);
top = w*lCable*lPole;
bottom = d.*sqrt((lPole^2)-(d.^2));
T = top./bottom;
% T = (w*lCable*lPole)./(d.*sqrt((lPole^2)-(d.^2)))
disp(T);
figure()
plot(d,T)
