Question at position 35 George is looking at the colors on a paint swatch card to select the right shade of red for his wall. He is able to differentiate between the various shades of red on the card and makes a quick decision. His perception of the differences in the shades can be attributed to the ________ of light reflecting from the shades.gradientsfrequenciestimbreswavelengths

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

George is distinguishing subtle differences in color on a paint swatch by how the surface reflects light. 
Option 1: gradients. Gradients describe smooth transitions or gradual changes, not the physical property that makes colors distinct. So this isn’t the mechanism behind perceiving shade differences. 
Option 2: frequencies. While light has frequency, color perception in everyday vision is more directly tied to the specific wavelengths of light that are reflected or absorbed. Describing color by frequency can be misleading; the standard color-difference perception uses wavelength more directly. 
Option 3: timbres. Timbre is a term from acoustics that describes the quality of a sound, not relevant to visible light or color perception. Therefore this option is incorrect. 
Option 4: wavelengths. The color that we perceive from a surface is determined by which wavelengths of light are reflected to our eyes; different shades reflect different wavelengths more prominently, leading to the perception of different reds. This aligns with how color vision works, making it the correct explanation.
