Question

Look at these pictures and discuss why things look wide and big at this end but narrow and small at the other end.

Answer in Brief

Solution

We know that things look different when we look at them from different views and distances.

In the first picture given above, one end of the railway track is looking wide and big while the other end is looking narrow as both of them are being seen from different distances.
In the second picture, the distance between the rows of candles looks wide from one end and narrow from the other end due to the same reason.
