The correct answer is this one: "D) significantly more than 100 billion gallons ." Clouds dump around 100 billion gallons of water on rainforests each year. The amount of rain is evaporated from the rivers, lakes and surface of rainforests each year is significantly more than 100 billion gallons<span> </span>
Answer:
9 cm
-36 cm
Explanation:
u = Object distance
v = Image distance
f = Focal length = 12
m = Magnification = 4

Lens equation

Object distance is 9 cm

Image distance is -36 cm (other side of object)
Answer:
R₁ = 50.77 Ω
Explanation:
Since, we know that:
Electric Power = P = VI
but from Ohm's Law:
V = IR
(or) I = V/R
Therefore,
P = V²/R
(OR) R = V²/P
where,
V = Battery Voltage
R = Resistance of combination
FOR SERIES COMBINATION:
R = Rs = (57 V)²/48 W
Rs = 67.69 Ω
but, we know that:
Rs = R₁ + R₂
R₁ + R₂ = 67.69 Ω
R₁ = 67.69 Ω - R₂ __________ eqn (1)
FOR PARALLEL COMBINATION:
R = Rp = (57 V)²/256 W
Rp = 12.69 Ω
but, we know that:
Rp = (R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂) = 12.69 Ω
using eqn (1) and value of R₁ + R₂, we get
Rp = 12.69 = R₂(67.69 - R₂)/67.69
859.08 = 67.69 R₂ - R₂²
R₂² - 67.69 R₂ + 859.08 = 0
Solving this quadratic equation we get the answers:
Either, R₂ = 50.76 Ω
Either, R₂ = 16.92 Ω
Since, it is stated in the question that R₁ > R₂. Therefore, we choose the second value. So,
<u>R₂ = 16.92 Ω</u>
using this value in eqn (1), we get:
R₁ = 67.69 Ω - 16.92 Ω
<u>R₁ = 50.77 Ω</u>
