Verified
Perception of colour hue is primarily determined by the wavelength of the light wave; whereas brightness is determined by the purity of the wave and saturation by the wave amplitude.
Colour Hue
The quality of a color determined by its dominant wavelength, making it distinguishable as red, green, blue, etc.
Light Wave
An electromagnetic wave visible to the human eye, responsible for the perception of light and color.
Wavelength
The distance between successive crests of a wave, often used to describe the properties of light and sound waves.
- Acquire knowledge on the connection between the physical properties of light and sound and how these are perceived in terms of color, brightness, loudness, and other aspects.

Final Answer :
False
Explanation :
Perception of color hue is primarily determined by the wavelength of the light wave; brightness is determined by the wave amplitude (or intensity of the light); and saturation is determined by the purity of the wave (how mixed the light is with white light).
