The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "Seal (Phoca) is:", we need to analyze the options provided and determine the correct classification of seals. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Scientific Classification**: - The scientific name for the common seal is *Phoca vitulina*. 2. **Determine the Habitat**: - Seals are primarily found in marine environments, often near the seashore. 3. **Classify the Diet**: - Seals are carnivores, meaning they primarily eat meat. They are classified as flesh-eating animals. 4. **Evaluate the Options**: - The options provided are: - A) Marine mammal - B) Carnivore - C) Both A and B - D) Swimmer as well as fast runner - Since seals are both marine mammals and carnivores, we can conclude that option C (Both A and B) is correct. 5. **Consider Additional Information**: - While seals are excellent swimmers, they are not known for being fast runners on land. This makes option D incorrect. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **C) Both A and B** (Seal is a marine mammal and a carnivore). ---

Length of a horizontal arm of ends of both the vertical arms pressure P_(0) = 10^(5) N//m^(2) . A liquid of density rho = 10^(3) kg //m^(3) is poured in the tube such that liquid just fills the horizontal part of the tube as a shown in Fig. Now one end of the open ends is sealed and the tube is then rotated about a vertical axis passing through the other vertical arm with angular speed omega_(0)=sqrt(40//3)rad//sec . If length of each vertical arm is a = 1 m and in the sealed end liquid rises to a height y = 1//2 m , find pressure in the sealed tube during rotation. (in xx 10^(5) N//m^(2))
