(Navigation)  The amount of coal used by a steamship travelling at a uniform speed varies jointly as the distance traveled and the square of the speed.  If a steamship uses 45 tons of coal travelling 80 mi at 15 knots, how many tons will it use if it travels 120 mi at 20 knots?

Since current varies directly as E, 1.5(100)V will send 1.5(20) = 30A c = kdv^2 Since 120/80 = 3/2 and 20/15 = 4/3, the new c will be (3/2)(4/3)^2 * 45 = 120 tons

the current I varies directly as the electromotive force E and inversely as the resistance R. If a current of 30 amperes flows through a system with 16 ohms resistance and electromotive force a 120 volts,find the current when the current when the system with 20 ohms resistance and electromotive force of 200 volt.the current I varies directly as the electromotive force E and inversely as the resistance R.
