The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Psychologists learned about perception from optical illusions that the response of the senses, when faced with optical stimuli, is different and can be measured because the human can interpret an optical stimulus as being real.

Gustav Fechner (1801-1887) was a German physicist who developed the science that studied quantitative relations of stimuli and sensations. It is called psychophysics. In 1860, he published the book "Elements of Psychophysics," in which he studies how the perception determines the sensory input.

Answer:

Explanation:

That an optical illusion somehow interferes with the way we see things. Even simple illusions can completely fool us. If you search out the term, you'll see all kinds of them.

Most critically we see one thing and know another to be true. But knowing the truth doesn't help us. We still see and believe the truth of the illusion.

What is the difference between arteries and artiole?

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The answer is down below

Explanation:

Las arterias transportan la sangre desde el corazón y se ramifican en vasos más pequeños, formando arteriolas. Las arteriolas distribuyen sangre a los lechos capilares, los lugares de intercambio con los tejidos corporales. Los capilares conducen de regreso a pequeños vasos conocidos como vénulas que fluyen hacia las venas más grandes y finalmente regresan al corazón.

A light ray incident on a block of glass makes an incident angle of 50.0° with the normal to the surface. The refracted ray in t

Andru [333]

Answer:

$n_{glass} = 1.65$

Explanation:

As we know that the angle of incidence is given as

$i = 50.0^o$

also we have angle of refraction as

$r = 27.7^o$

now by Snell's law we know that

$n_{air} sin i = n_{glass} sin r$

$1 sin50 = n_{glass} sin 27.7$

now we have

$n_{glass} = \frac{sin 50}{sin 27.7}$

$n_{glass} = 1.65$
