Why do rainforests have high biodiversity?
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Rainforests have high biodiversity because they are abundant in nutrients, energy and a favorable climate.

Biodiversity is high because the warm and wet consistent climate in tropical rainforests is able to sustain life in all different forms. Soil nutrient is poor in tropical rain forests because the sunlight that is intended to reach the floor of the tropical forest is blocked by the tall and dense trees.

Voyager I is now about 110 AU from Earth, continuing to record its environment as it approaches the limits of our Solar System.
Monica [59]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

(i) 1 Astronomical Unit (A.U.) = 1.496 x 10^8 Km.

Therefore, distance of Voyager I from Earth = 71 AU = 71 x 1.496 x 10^8 = 1.062 x 10^10 Km.

(ii) The nearest star to Earth than sun is the Proxima Centauri in the Alpha Centauri system. The Proxima Centauri is 4.22 light years away from Earth.

As, 1 Light year = 63241.1 AU

The distance of the Proxima Centauri from Earth = 4.22 x 63241.1 AU = 266877.3 AU

The distance of the Voyager I from Earth = 71 AU

The number of times the distance of the Proxima Centauri from Earth is greater than that of Voyager I is = 266877.3 / 71

= 3758.835 times.

(iii) Speed of light is 1.079 x 10^9 Km/hr

Light travels 1.079 x 10^9 km in 1 hr

Therefore, 1. 062 x 10^10 Km is traveled by light in = (1.062 x 10^10) / (1.079 x 10^9) hr = 9.84 hours

That means when Voyager I was 71 AU from Earth, a observational data from Voyager I at the speed of light took 9.84 hours to reach Earth.
