The best answer is C."the brain interprets the size of the images"
Because, light reflects off the things in the world, then is focussed by our eye's lens. The light changes the light image we are seeing from the distal stimulus(or 3 diminutional world) to the proximal stimulus(or 2 dimensional world), but the image is not actually interpreted until it passes through the retina and optic nerve. The retina converts light into electrical impulses and the optic nerve carries those impulses to the brain. The Brain then changes the electrical impulses into a visual image.

Exactly the same way that you can photograph a mountain or a skyscraper
with the itty bitty camera in your smartphone.

Lenses are used to form a tiny image of a gigantic object.

A 0.877 mol sample of N2(g) initially at 298 K and 1.00 atm is held at constant volume while enough heat is applied to raise the
MissTica

Answer : The value of q\text{ and }\Delta U is 286.2 J and 286.2 J respectively.

Explanation : Given,

Moles of sample = 0.877 mol

Change in temperature = 15.7 K

First we have to calculate the heat absorbed by the system.

Formula used :

q=n\times c_v\times \Delta T

where,

q = heat absorbed by the system = ?

n = moles of sample = 0.877 mol

\Delta T = Change in temperature = 15.7 K

c_v = heat capacity at constant volume of N_2 (diatomic molecule) = \frac{5}{2}R

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:

q=0.877mol\times \frac{5}{2}\times 8.314J/mol.K\times 15.7K

q=286.2J

Now we have to calculate the change in internal energy of the system.

\Delta U=q+w

As we know that, work done is zero at constant volume. So,

\Delta U=q=286.2J

Therefore, the value of q\text{ and }\Delta U is 286.2 J and 286.2 J respectively.

A plate drops onto a smooth floor and shatters into three pieces of equal mass.Two of the pieces go off with equal speeds v at r
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Speed of the this part is given as

v_3 = \sqrt2 v

Also the direction of the velocity of the third part of plate is moving along 135 degree with respect to one part of the moving plate

Explanation:

As we know by the momentum conservation of the system

we will have

P_1 + P_2 + P_3 = P_i

here we know that

P_1 = P_2

the momentum of two parts are equal in magnitude but perpendicular to each other

so we will have

P_1 + P_2 = \sqrt{P^2 + P^2}

P_1 + P_2 = \sqrt2 mv

now from above equation we have

P_3 = -(P_1 + P_2)

mv_3 = -(\sqrt 2 mv)

v_3 = \sqrt2 v

Also the direction of the velocity of the third part of plate is moving along 135 degree with respect to one part of the moving plate
