Using a pinhole camera a student observes the image of two of his friends, standing in sunlight, wearing yellow and red shirt respectively. What will be the colours of the shirts in the image?
The color of the shirt will remain the same. We see them on the screen because the pinhole camera produces an image of an object of the same color but opposite.
So, a yellow shirt will make a yellow image and a redshirt a red image.
