Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Relative motion helps us perceive the distance of objects. When objects move closer or farther away from us, the speed and direction of their movement give us information about their distance. For example, an object moving quickly towards us is likely to be closer than an object moving slowly towards us. This information helps us judge the distance of objects in our visual environment.
