That statement is not correct. Power is proportional to the square of the voltage.
"Power is directly proportional to voltage" claims that there is a relationship of the type: P=kV, where power is voltage, multiplied by some constant. That means for example that if voltage doubles, power doubles as well.
The correct relation is: power is proportional to the square of the voltage. That means that if voltage doubles, power increases by a factor of 4. In general, such as square proportion might be written as:
P = kV2
for some constant k. The relevant law in this case is:
P = (1/R)V2
where "R" is the resistance.

What does it mean to say momentum is directly proportional to mass and velocity?
Being proportional means that if you change one by a given factor, the other will change by that factor as well. Being proprtional to both means it is proportional to their product, i.e. momentum equals mass times velocity, p = mv.

What does the word tandem mean in this sentence the two power sources can run the car directly or they can work in tandem?
Tandem means that first you hook the power sources to each other, then to whatever it is that's being powered - like the stoker and the captain on a tandem bike

What is the difference between mean and peak power?
Mean power is the average power output over a given period of time, while peak power is the maximum power output achieved at any point during that same period. Mean power gives a representation of overall effort, while peak power shows the highest intensity reached.
What does losing power mean?
it means you are loosing power.
