Any object that just fits into your visual field has this angular size. Do all objects that you see this this angular size have

the same linear size (the size you would measure by placing a ruler next to them)? If not, when does an object have a larger linear size than another object even though both have the same angular size?

Answer:

No the angular and linear size will not be same for different objects bearing the same angular size and is dependent on the point of observation. The greater the distance between the observer and the object, the greater the difference between the angular and linear size.

Explanation:

The angular size is the ratio of two lengths namely

Angular \, Size=\frac{Linear Size}{Distance from the object}

Here if the distance from the object is unity, the angular and linear size will be similar. However if the distance of observation is very large, the angular size for large bodies with large linear size will be very small.

An example in this regard is Sun.

The linear size of Sun, (the diameter) is 1.3927 million km. Which is very large. However as it is very far from earth, 147.44 million km, the angular size is very small.

it is given as

Angular \, Size=\frac{1.39}{147.44}=0.009 rad

Now the same angular size can be of a tennis ball having a diameter of 10 cm , placed at around 10.6 m away.

Angular \, Size=\frac{0.1}{10.6}=0.009 rad

<h3>What is Geometry?</h3>

It deals with the size of geometry, region, and density of the different forms both 2D and 3D.

Triangle XYZ has vertices X(0, 2), Y(4, 4), and Z(3, –1).

If the triangle is ΔXYZ. Then the image of the triangle is to be formed by rotating ΔXYZ 180 degrees about the (2, -3) as shown in the graph.

Find the magnitude of the free-fall acceleration at the orbit of the Moon (a distance of 60RE from the center of the Earth with
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The magnitude of the free-fall acceleration at the orbit of the Moon is 2.728\times 10^{-3}\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} (\frac{2.784}{10000}\cdot g, where g = 9.8\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}).

Explanation:

According to the Newton's Law of Gravitation, free fall acceleration (g), in meters per square second, is directly proportional to the mass of the Earth (M), in kilograms, and inversely proportional to the distance from the center of the Earth (r), in meters:

g = \frac{G\cdot M}{r^{2}} (1)

Where:

G - Gravitational constant, in cubic meters per kilogram-square second.

M - Mass of the Earth, in kilograms.

r - Distance from the center of the Earth, in meters.

If we know that G = 6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}}, M = 5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg and r = 382.26\times 10^{6}\,m, then the free-fall acceleration at the orbit of the Moon is:

g = \frac{\left(6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}} \right)\cdot (5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg)}{(382.26\times 10^{6}\,m)^{2}}

g = 2.728\times 10^{-3}\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

In some recent studies it has been shown that women are men when competing in similar sports (most notably in soccer and basketb
Elza [17]

Answer: The correct option is B (The Young's modulus of women's ACLS is typically smaller than that of men's, resulting in more stress for the same amount of strain)

Explanation:

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the important ligaments found at the knee joint which helps to stabilise the joint. It connects the femur to the tibia bone at the knee joint.

Anterior cruciate ligament tear is one of the common knee joint injury which is seen in individuals( especially females) involved in sports( example soccer and basketball which involves sudden change in direction causing the knee to rotate inwards)

ACL tear occurs through both contact and non contact mechanisms. The contact mechanism of ACL injury occurs when force is directly applied at the lateral part of the knee while in non contact mechanism,tear occurs when the tibia is externally rotated on the planted foot.

Research has proven that women are prone to have ACL tear than men when competing in similar sports. This disparity exists due to structural differences that pose as risk factors. These includes

- the female ACL size is smaller than the male.

- the ACL of female has a lower modulus if elasticity( that is, less stiff) than in males leading to greater joint mobility than in the male.. therefore the option, (The Young's modulus of women's ACLS is typically smaller than that of men's, resulting in more stress for the same amount of strain) is correct.
