For a resistor in a direct current circuit that does not vary its resistance, the power that a resistor must dissipate is direct

ly proportional ti the square of the voltage across the resistor. The resistor must dissipate 1/16 watt of power when the voltage across the resistor is 14 volts. Find the power that the resistor must dissipate when the voltage across it is 42 volts.

THe problem is basically telling us: P=kV^2

where P is the power disappated and V^2 is our voltage squared.

\frac{1}{16}=k*14^2\implies\\ \frac{1}{16*196}=k \implies \\ \frac{1}{3136}=k

So, for the second example to find the power we simply have to plug k and our voltage back in, so:P=\frac{14^2*3^2}{14^2*6} \implies \\ P=\frac{9}{6}= \frac{3}{2}
