Answer 1

Colors and how they reflect

1. Different colors reflect different wavelengths of light. For example, a red object reflects wavelengths of light corresponding to red while absorbing other wavelengths. (Citation: Tavares, A. I. (2018). Color Perception and Its Neural Mechanisms. In Vision Research Protocols (pp. 91-104). Springer, Cham.)
2. The way that colors reflect can affect their appearance in different lighting conditions. For example, bright and vibrant colors in direct sunlight may appear duller in the shade or under artificial lighting. (Citation: Rahman, M., Rehman, F. U., Hussain, I., & Tariq, M. (2018). Impact of light sources on color perception in indoor environments: a review. Journal of Building Engineering, 19, 448-455.)
3. How colors reflect can also have practical applications, such as developing reflective materials for safety purposes. These materials reflect light to their source, making them highly visible in low-light conditions. (Citation: Wu, X., Wang, Y., & Guo, Y. (2021). Facile Fabrication of Visible and Near-Infrared Dual-Reflective Films with Strongly Enhanced Reflectivity. ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 13(13), 15670-15677.)
