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

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Living fossils are interesting as well important creations of nature. Let's take an example of a plant <em>Ginkgo biloba</em>. 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.

A positively charged particle 1 is at the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system, and there are no other charged objects nearby

8090 [49]

Answer:

P=(2 nm, 8mn)

Explanation:

Given :

Position of positively charged particle at origin, $O=(0\ nm,0\ nm)$

Position of desired magnetic field, $D\equiv(1\ nm,8\ nm)$

Magnitude of desired magnetic field, $E=0\ N.C^{-1}$

Let q be the positive charge magnitude placed at origin.

<u>We know the distance between the two Cartesian points is given as:</u>

$d=\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}$

<u>For the electric field effect to be zero at point D we need equal and opposite field at the point.</u>

$\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{q}{r^2 } =\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{q}{r^2 }$

$\therefore (1-0)^2+(8-0)^2=r^2$

$r^2=65\ nm$

$r=\sqrt{65}$

as we know that the electric field lines emerge radially outward of a positive charge so the second charge will be at equally opposite side of the given point.

assuming that the second charge is placed at (x,y) nano-meters.

Therefore,

$x=2\times 1=2\ nm$

and

$y=2\times 8=16\ nm$

An experiment is set up to test the angular resolution of an optical device when red light (wavelength ????r ) shines on an aper

Neko [114]

Explanation:

As per Rayleigh criterion, the angular resolution is given as follows:

$\theta=\frac{1.22 \lambda}{D}$

From this expression larger the size of aperture, smaller will be the value of angular resolution and hence, better will be the device i.e. precision for distinguishing two points at very high angular difference is higher.

5. Which unit of electricity does the work in a circuit?

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Volt

Explanation:

Voltage is what makes electric charges move. ... Voltage is also called, in certain circumstances, electromotive force (EMF). Voltage is an electrical potential difference, the difference in electric potential between two places. The unit for electrical potential difference, or voltage, is the volt.

The ohm is defined as an electrical resistance between two points of a conductor when a constant potential difference of one volt, applied to these points, produces in the conductor a current of one ampere, the conductor not being the seat of any electromotive force.

The coulomb (symbolized C) is the standard unit of electric charge in the International System of Units (SI). ... In terms of SI base units, the coulomb is the equivalent of one ampere-second. Conversely, an electric current of A represents 1 C of unit electric charge carriers flowing past a specific point in 1 s.

An ampere is a unit of measure of the rate of electron flow or current in an electrical conductor. One ampere of current represents one coulomb of electrical charge (6.24 x 1018 charge carriers) moving past a specific point in one second.
