Answer:

Because of the knowledge of <u>relative size</u>, it will be assumed that the smaller jetliner is farther away.

Explanation:

According to the theory of relative size, the distance that an object has to the viewing individual affects the perception of the individual regarding the size of the object.

As stated in this case, one of the jetliners is farther away from the other. Therefore, even if the jets are of equal size, the one that is at a greater distance is perceived to be smaller as it is at a greater viewing range. The one that is nearer to the individual seems bigger in comparison to the one farther away due to a closer viewing range.

Therefore, the jet that is nearer appears larger.

A car is traveling at 70 km/h. It then uniformly decelerates to a complete stop in 12 s. Find its acceleration ( in m/s2 ).
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Acceleration will be -1.620m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given initial speed of the car is 70 km/hr

We know that 1 km = 1000 m

And 1 hour = 3600 sec

So 70km/hr=70\times \frac{1000m}{3600sec}=19.444m/sec

It is given that car stops in 12 sec

So final speed of the car v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 12 sec

From first equation of motion v = u+at

So 0=19.444+a\times 12

a=\frac{-19.444}{12}=-1.620m/sec^2 ( negative sign indicates that speed of the car will constantly decrease )

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

a. 1100 meters.

b. Between B and C

c.1. Between point D and E

c2. Between point D and E

d. 3.7 m/s.

Explanation:

The girl travels the distance of 1100 meters from starting to the end. There is no motion occurs between B and C due to no change of distance value from 200 meters. Between point D and E, the girls covers 500 meters long distance and also covers fastest distance between point D and E because between point D and E, the girl covers 500 meters distance in 30 seconds which is the highest of all. The average speed of the girls is 3.7 meter/seconds if we divide total distance i.e. 1100 meters by time which is 300 seconds.
