SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question.
Solve.
1) For a resistor in a direct current circuit that does not vary its resistance, the power that a
resistor must dissipate is directly proportional to the square of the voltage across the
1
resistor. The resistor must dissipate
watt of power when the voltage across the resistor
16
1)
is 8 volts. Find the power that the resistor must dissipate when the voltage across it is 16
volts.
2) While traveling at a constant speed in a car, the centrifugal acceleration passengers feel
while the car is turning is inversely proportional to the radius of the turn. If the passengers
feel an acceleration of 12 feet per second per second when the radius of the turn is 100 feet,
find the acceleration the passengers feel when the radius of the turn is 300 feet.

3) The amount of simple interest earned on an investment over a fixed amount of time is
jointly proportional to the principle invested and the interest rate. A principle investment
of $3700.00 with an interest rate of 6% earned $666.00 in simple interest. Find the amount
of simple interest earned if the principle is $2000.00 and the interest rate is 3%.
