The gas pressure in a sealed container if the container's volume is changed, given constant temperature and constant amount of gas. | P=VnRT | The variables are the pressure P and the volume V. The amount of gas n, temperature T, and universal gas constant R are fixed values. Therefore, the constant of variation is nRT. |
The time it takes to travel a given distance at various speeds. | t=sd | The constant of variation is the distance d and the variables are the time t and the speed s. |
Inverse variation is closely related to other types of variation.
