Linda usually listens to music on her iPod while studying. When the volume is initially low, raising it by five decibels is high

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

This phenomenon is best explained by Weber's Law.

Explanation:

According to Weber's law, the change we are able to perceive in stimuli is proportional to the initial stimuli. Therefore, if the volume was initially high, we would only perceive a change that is also "high". Five decibels aren't much when compared to a high volume. However, when the volume was initially low, five decibels were enough to be perceived.

Complete the sentences by dragging the appropriate terms to the blank spaces. Through visual perception, everyone's brain interp

dexar [7]

Answer and Explanation:

To fill in the blanks, we will need to pay attention to contextual clues. That is, what the sentence speaks of will give us the clues we need to choose the correct word for it. Let's separate each part to make it easier:

1. Through visual perception, everyone's brain interprets a visual situation differently, creating a subjective viewing experience. --> Something is considered subjective when different people have different ways to see or understand it. That is what the sentence is about.

2. In looking at art, we bring our own associations to the experience, causing us to interpret the work in a personal manner. --> Association is the same as connection. Each person tends to connect a work of art to something they have already seen or experienced in life. Therefore, we make associations.

3. Paintings from the 17th century that deal with the fleeting nature of earthly life and happiness are said to be in the vanitas tradition. --> Vanitas is a type of art that shows the futility and transience of life, as well as the certainty of death. Since the sentence speaks of a tradition in paintings, vanitas is the best word to complete it.

4. Due to the immense amount of detail in our surroundings at any given moment, we use selective perception in order to focus on important information, relegating everything else to the background. --> The sentence is basically defining what selective perception is (focusing on important information and leaving the rest out).

5. When we keep our eyes and minds wide open, using our own experiences to enhance life and work, we are developing our creativity. --> This is the only option left. Also, we know that an open mind is crucial for us to be creative.
