Based on the relative luminosity curve shown in the figure,...

Based on the relative luminosity curve shown in the figure, determine the relative luminosity of wavelength 600 nm600 \text{ nm}.

Options

  1. A0.660.66
  2. B0.760.76
  3. C0.560.56
  4. D0.330.33

Correct answer

A. 0.660.66

Step-by-step solution

From the standard relative luminosity curve for photopic vision, the peak relative luminosity is 1.01.0 at a wavelength of 555 nm555 \text{ nm}.

As the wavelength increases from 555 nm555 \text{ nm} to 600 nm600 \text{ nm}, the relative luminosity decreases.

Based on the standard curve (or the specific curve provided in such problems), the relative luminosity at 600 nm600 \text{ nm} is approximately 0.630.63 to 0.660.66. Reading directly from the given figure, the value corresponds to 0.660.66.
