Answer: v=16

Explanation:

Given: The inverse variation equation :


p=(8)/(v)

To find the value of v when p = 1/2, replace the value of p by 1/3 in the above inverse equation, we get


(1)/(2)=(8)/(v)

Multiply 2v on both the sides , we get


(1)/(2)*2v=(8)/(v)*2v\\\\\Rightarrow\ v=16

Hence, the the value of v =16.
