In the figure below, $N$ congruent semicircles lie on the diameter of a large semicircle, with their diameters covering the diameter of the large semicircle with no overlap. Let $A$ be the combined area of the small semicircles and $B$ be the area of the region inside the large semicircle but outside the semicircles. The ratio $A:B$ is $1:18$. What is $N$?
