Answer:

0.175

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

r and s vary inversely

Mathematically, we can represent the relation as

rs ∝ 1

or

rs = k   ............(i)

here,

k is the proportionality constant

when,

r = 1200 ; s = 0.35

thus,

1200 × 0.35 = k

or

k = 420    ...............(ii)

similarly for case when r = 2400

rs = k                                   [ From (i) ]

2400s = 420                      [ value of k from (ii) ]

or

s = 0.175
