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.

Answer:

If the velocity and acceleration are in the same direction (both have the same sign - both positive or both negative) the object is speeding up. If the velocity and acceleration are in opposite directions (they have opposite signs), the object is slowing down.

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Wc = 7.84    weight of crown

Ww = 7.84 - 6.86 = .98       weight of water displaced

Density = 7.84 / .98 = 8     crown is 8 X that of water

Since gold has a density of 19.3 that of water the crown is certainly not 100 percent (if any) gold

Question 7 of 25
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

2PBr₃ + 3Cl₂ → 2PCl₃ + 3Br₂

2Na + MgCl₂ → 2NaCl + Mg

Explanation:

A balanced chemical equation is a chemical equation that have an equal number of elements of each type on both sides of the equation

Among the given chemical reactions, we have;

2PBr₃ + 3Cl₂ → 2PCl₃ + 3Br₂

In the above reaction;

The number of phosphorus, P, on either side of the equation = 2

The number of bromine atoms, Br, on either side of the equation = 6

The number of chlorine atoms, Cl, on either side of the equation = 6

Therefore, the number of elements in the reactant side and products side of the reaction are equal and the reaction is balanced

The second balanced chemical reaction is 2Na + MgCl₂ → 2NaCl + Mg

In the above reaction, there are two sodium atoms, Na,  one magnesium atom and two chlorine atoms on both sides of the reaction, therefore, the reaction is balanced
