Step-by-Step Solution:
####
Question 1: What do you need to do to iceberg an 80 miles away?
This is a playful riddle rather than an optical illusion. The answer is:
-
A. Nothing. (Icebergs float, so they move on their own.)

####
Question 2: The thick lines are...
The image shows two sets of parallel lines with alternating dark and light stripes. Due to the optical illusion (Müller-Lyer illusion), the lines appear to be different thicknesses, but they are actually the same.
-
Correct Answer: D. Straight.

####
Question 5: Which line is longer?
The image shows two horizontal lines with arrows at the ends. Due to the Ponzo illusion, the line with outward-pointing arrows appears longer, but both lines are actually the same length.
-
Correct Answer: D. They are the same length.

Question 6: Which arrow is pointing up?
