Do you have the answer choices ?
The apparent shift <span>is the apparent in the position of an object when viewed from two locations.
Hope this helps :)</span>
Answer:
Li has less mass and therefore less inertia, so he can change his motion more easily than Raj.
Explanation:
Inertia describes the resistance of an object to any change in its state of motion, and it depends on the mass of the object only. In particular:
- if an object has a large inertia (large mass), then it is more difficult to change its state of motion (i.e. to put it in motion, or to slow it down, or to change its direction of motion)
- if an object has small inertia (small mass), then it is more easy to change its state of motion
In this problem, Li has less mass than Raj, so he has less inertia, therefore he can change his motion more easily than Raj.
