Ancient species living in earth with all its close relatives dead are called living fossils.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Living fossils are interesting as well important creations of nature. Let's take an example of a plant Ginkgo biloba. Its a plant of gymnosperm family along with pine and fir, but belongs to the order Ginkgoales. In this order, Gingko biloba is the only plant that's alive till now, all the other species are dead.

Living fossils give us important informations about the adaptation that used to prevail in earth that lead to survival of species in contemporary times. It also establishes relationships between the two or more phyla of organisms in a taxonomic way.

Animal living fossils are lungfish, horse shoe crab, coelacanth fish, Tuatara, lobe finned fishes etc.

Answer:

1) P₁ = -2 D, 2) P₂ = 6 D

Explanation:

for this exercise in geometric optics let's use the equation of the constructor

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}$

where f is the focal length, p and q are the distance to the object and the image, respectively

1) to see a distant object it must be at infinity (p = ∞)

$\frac{1}{f_1} = \frac{1}{q}$

q = f₁

2) for an object located at p = 25 cm

$\frac{1}{f_2} = \frac{1}{25} + \frac{1}{q}$

We can that in the two expressions we have the distance to the image, this is the distance where it can be seen clearly in general for a normal person is q = 50 cm

we substitute in the equations

1) f₁ = -50 cm

$\frac{1}{f_2} = \frac{1}{25} + \frac{1}{50}$

$\frac{1}{f_2}$ = 0.06

f₂ = 16.67 cm

the expression for the power of the lenses is

P = $\frac{1}{f}$

where the focal length is in meters

1) P₁ = 1/0.50

P₁ = -2 D

2) P₂ = 1 /0.16667

P₂ = 6 D

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

1.5 * 10^-2 Tm^2

Explanation:

Electric Flux = B.A cos(theta)

B = 0.055 T

A = 0.32 m^2

theta = 30

Electric Flux = (0.055 T).(0.32 m^2).Cos(30) = 0.0152 = 1.5 * 10^-2 Tm^2

Angle (θ) = 60°
Force (F) = 20 N
Distance (s) = 200 m
Therefore, work done
= Fs Cos θ
= (20 × 200 × Cos 60°) J
= (20 × 200 × 1/2) J
= (20 × 100) J
= 2000 J

Answer:

2000 J
