Solution

Pinhole camera:

  1. A gadget that creates a picture of an item is called a pinhole camera.
  2. It is indeed a box with a very small opening on one of its edges. When light falls through the hole, an inverted picture forms on the opposing side.

Image characteristics of pinhole camera:

  1. As the picture on the screen is obtained, a genuine image is obtained.
  2. The produced picture is much smaller in dimension than the actual thing.
  3. The picture has been inverted on both the x and y axes.
  4. The picture may be used to examine the rectilinear propagation of light.

Therefore, the colors of the shirts in the image will not change.
