Question
Chapter 16, Problem 60A
To determine
The color recommended for the fire trucks and the ambulance to be painted.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 60A
The color recommended for the fire trucks and the ambulance to be painted is yellowgreen color, because a person is able to see the yellow green painted fire truck and ambulance with less reflected light.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Our eyes are designed in such a way that they are able to distinguish colors and can detect huge range of colors. They are more sensitive to some colors such as yellow, green, etc. compared to other colors.
It is recommended that the fire trucks and ambulance should be painted yellow green of wavelength
