The given data is Magnification, M = 15

Length of the tube , L = 16 cm

The focal length of the lens can be calculated by:

M = L/F

Substituting the value, we get:

15 = 16/f

f = 16/15

f = 1.067 cm

Using the equation of magnification we get,

M = v/u

Substituting the values we get:

15 = v/u

v = 15 u

With the help of lens formula, calculate the object distance:

1/f = 1/v + 1/u

Substituting the value we get,

1/1.067 = 1/15u + 1/u

0.937 = 1.067/u

u = 1.13 cm or 1.1 cm.

Hence, the object distance is 1.1 cm.

rjkz [21]
The answer is: 'constrict the blood vessels in their large ears to reduce transfer of external heat to the blood in their ears.' This is an example of thermoregulation. Thermoregulation is the ability of the<span> </span>body to keep body temperature<span> within certain boundaries, even when the temperature of the surrounding environment is very different. The regulation of temperature by thermoregulating organisms is one aspect of </span>homeostasis. By using heat exchange systems, such as employed in this example, the animal will need to expend less energy on behavioural adaptations to maintain a constant body temperature.
