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.

Two ice skaters stand together as illustrated in the attached figure. They "push off" and travel directly away from each other,
Tema [17]
By definition, the momentum is given by:
 p = m * v
 Where,
 m = mass
 v = speed.
 On the other hand,
 F = m * a
 Where,
 m = mass
 a = acceleration:
 For the boy we have:
 p1 = m * v
 p1 = (F / a) * v
 p1 = ((710) / (9.81)) * (0.50)
 p1 = 36.19 Kg * (m / s)
 For the girl we have:
 p2 = m * v
 p2 = (F / a) * v
 p2 = ((480) / (9.81)) * (v)
 p2 = 48.93 * v Kg * (m / s)
 Then, we have:
 p1 + p2 = 0
 36.19 + 48.93 * v = 0
 Clearing v:
 v = - (36.19) / (48.93)
 v = -0.74 m / s (negative because the velocity is in the opposite direction of the boy's)
 Answer:
 the girl's velocity in m / s after they push off is -0.74 m / s

Boxes A and B are being pulled to the right on a frictionless surface. Box A has a larger mass than B. How do the two tension fo
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Tension T1 is less than tension T2.

T1 < T2

Explanation:

According to given data,

mass of box A ( mA) is grater than mass of box B (mB)

we can write,

m(A) > m(B)

Newton's second law states that:

Tension of object is directly proportional to the mass of the system.

T ∝ m

here Boxes A and B are being pulled to the right on a frictionless surface,

so Tension T1 generates due to the mass of box A m(A)

and Tension T2 arises due to mass of the system m(A) + m(B)

Thus tension T1 will be less than tension T2

T1 < T2
