  1. Persistence of vision is the Principle behind:
    1. Binocular
    2. Cinema
    3. Periscope
    4. Camera
Correct Option: B

Persistence of vision is the phenomenon of the eye by which an afterimage is thought to persist for approximately one twenty-fifth of a second on the retina. In the early days of cinema, it was scientifically determined that a frame rate of less than 16 frames per second (frame/s) caused the mind to see flashing images. Audiences still interpret motion at rates as low as ten frames per second or slower, but the flicker caused by the shutter of a film projector is distracting below the 16-frame threshold.
