Aqua 2: 0.9 cm/h × 40 h = 36 cm
Aqua 3: 1.5 cm/h × 40 h = 60 cm
Total without stacking effect: 48 + 36 + 60 = 144 cm
Effective total depth = 144 cm × 1.10 = 158.4 cm
#### 158.4
A science journalist is analyzing data from a recent study showing that a new solar panel increases efficiency by 22% over standard models. If a standard panel generates 280 watts per square meter under full sunlight, and a test installation uses 15 panels each with area 1.8 m², how much additional power is generated by the new panels due to improved efficiency?
