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.
