- Applications Set up and solve the required proportion. Heat dissipation The power, in watts, dissipated as heat in a resistor varies directly with the square of the voltage and inversely with the resistance. If 20 volts are placed across a 20-ohm resistor, it will dissipate 20 watts. What voltage across a 10-ohm resistor will dissipate 40 watts?arrow_forwardApplications Set up and solve the required proportion. Frequency of vibration The pitch, or frequency, of a vibrating string varies directly with the square root of the tension. If a string vibrates at a frequency of 144 hertz due to a tension of 2 pounds, find the frequency when the tension is 18 pounds.arrow_forwardEnergy The power P produced by a wind turbine is directly proportional to the cube of the wind speed S. A wind speed of 27 miles per hour produces a power output of 750 kilowatts. Find the output for a wind speed of 40 miles per hour.arrow_forward
- Ecology The diameter of the largest particle that a stream can move is approximately directly proportional to the square of the velocity of the stream. When the velocity is 14 mile per hour, the stream can move coarse sand particles about 0.02 inch in diameter.

The force F needed to keep the car from skidding is jointly proportional to the weight w of the car and the square of its speed s and is inversely proportional to the radius r of the curve. a Write an equation that expresses this variation. b A car weighing 1600 lb travels around a curve at 60 mi/h. The next car to round this curve weighs 2500 lb and requires the same force as the first car to keep from skidding. How fast is the second car traveling?arrow_forward
- Music The fundamental frequency (in hertz) of a piano string is directly proportional to the square root of its tension and inversely proportional to its length and the square root of its mass density. A string has a frequency of 100 hertz. Find the frequency of a string with each property.
