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.

How are mass, distance and gpe related
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

It is direct proportionality. The greater the mass, the greater is the gravitational potential energy. The equation for GPE is : GPE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height above the ground. As you can see GPE is directly proportional to mass, and height. KT.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is a function of both the mass of your system and the mass of the thing generating the gravity field around your system.

The relationship is linear, which means that if you multiply or divide one of the masses by some number but leave everything else the same, you multiply or divide the potential energy by the same number. A 3kg mass has three times the gravitation potential energy of a 1kg mass, if placed in the same location.

Rose has been working as a receptionist for 20 years. One day, she receives a check in the mail for $750,000—an inheritance from
sergey [27]
The just-world phenomenon is the belief that everything that happens to an individual is due to the individual's actions; in other words, all good and all bad that an individual encounters in the world is deserved by that person. This leads to a victim being blamed with the logic that "they had it coming" and someone who encounters good fortune being praised with "they earned it". Therefore, in this scenario, people will assume that Rose's inheritance is well deserved.<span />

you give a shopping cart a job down the aisle the cart is full of groceries and has a mass of 18 kilograms the cart accelerates
mezya [45]

                 Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                 Force = (18 kg) x (3 m/s²) = 54 newtons

As long as you continue pushing the cart with 54 newtons of force,
it will accelerate at 3 m/s². 

At the instant you release it, or keep your hands on it but stop pushing,
it will stop accelerating.  It'll continue forward at the speed it had when
the 54 newtons of force stopped.
