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.

Answer:

the airspeed indicated by the pitot-tube driven airspeed indicator is 91.23m/s

Explanation:

Pitot tube

U = \sqrt{\frac{(p_t - p_s)2}{d} }

U = velocity(m/s)

p_t= stagnation pressure (pa)

p_s= static pressure (pa)

d = fluid density(kg/m³)

p_t = p_a_t_m + \frac{1}{2} dv^2

v = true velocity

= 101325 + 1/2(1.225)(25)²

p_t = 101,707.8125pa

p_s = 96,610pa

d = 1.225kg/m³

U = \sqrt{\frac{2(101,707.8125 - 96,610)}{1.225} } \\\\U = 91.23m/s

the airspeed indicated by the pitot-tube driven airspeed indicator is 91.23m/s

Question 4 (18 marks) (a) During a Physics Lab experiment, 1 st year SFY students analyzed the behavior of capacitors by connect
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

1.) 274.5v

2.) 206.8v

Explanation:

1.) Given that In one part of the lab activities, students connected a 2.50 µF capacitor to a 746 V power source, whilst connected a second 6.80 µF capacitor to a 562 V source.

The potential difference and charge across EACH capacitor will be

V = Voe

Where Vo = initial voltage

e = natural logarithm = 2.718

For the first capacitor 2.50 µF,

V = Vo × 2.718

746 = Vo × 2.718

Vo = 746/2.718

Vo = 274.5v

To calculate the charge, use the below formula.

Q = CV

Q = 2.5 × 10^-6 × 274.5

Q = 6.86 × 10^-4 C

For the second capacitor 6.80 µF 

V = Voe

562 = Vo × 2.718

Vo = 562/2.718

Vo = 206.77v

The charge on it will be

Q = CV

Q = 6.8 × 10^-6 × 206.77

Q = 1.41 × 10^-3 C

B.) Using the formula V = Voe again

165 = Vo × 2.718

Vo = 165 /2.718

Vo = 60.71v

Q = C × 60.71

Q = C

A projectile is fired with initial speed vo at an angle of 45o above the horizontal. Assume no air resistance.
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is a

Explanation:

At projectile launch speeds are

X axis     vₓ = v₀ = cte

Y axis     v_{y} = v_{oy} –gt

The moment is defined as

         p = mv

For the x axis

         pₓ = mvₓ = m v₀ₓ

As the speed is constant the moment is constant

For the y axis

        p_{y} = m v_{y} = m (v_{oy} –gt) = m v_{oy} - m (gt)

Speed ​​changes over time, so the moment also changes over time

Let's examine the answer

i   True

ii False.  The moment changes with time

The correct answer is a

A net force of 24 N is acting on a 4.0-kg object. Find the acceleration in m/s2.
Inessa [10]

Hi there!

We can use Newton's Second Law:
\Sigma F = ma

ΣF = Net force (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)

We can rearrange the equation to solve for the acceleration.

a = \frac{\Sigma F}{m}\\\\a = \frac{24}{4} = \boxed{6 \frac{m}{s^2}}
