Question 1159276: Wind farms are a source of renewable energy found around the world. The power P (in kilowatts) generated by a wind turbine varies directly as the cube of the wind speed v (in meters per second). If a turbine generates 600kW in a 13 m/s wind, how much power does it generate in a 14 m/s wind?
