The football team's kit would appear differently under various colors of light. A yellow shirt would look red under red light and dark under green or blue light, whereas white shorts would appear red in red light, green in green light, and blue in blue light, reflecting the color of the light itself.
The appearance of a football kit under different colors of light depends on color vision and the properties of light. In red light, the yellow shirt would appear red because yellow fabric reflects red light and in green or blue light, it would look black or a very dark color because there is no yellow component in green or blue light to be reflected. The white shorts would appear red in red light because white reflects all colors, while in green or blue light, the shorts would reflect that respective color.
- In red light: The yellow shirt looks red and the white shorts look red.
- In green light: The yellow shirt looks black/dark because it cannot reflect green light, the white shorts look green.
- In blue light: The yellow shirt looks black/dark for the same reason as in green light, and the white shorts look blue.
The perceived color of objects changes based on the light color illuminating them due to the way materials absorb and reflect different wavelengths of light.
