The figure shows $2$ identical bulbs $B_1$ and $B_2$ and a spinning wheel game divided into $6$ equal parts of different colors as shown. At $t = 0$,switch $S$ is closed and simultaneously the wheel is set to rotate about its center $O$ in a clockwise direction with an initial angular velocity of $2.5\pi \text{ rad/s}$. Find the color on which a student should place a bet if the color appearing on the pointer at the instant when both bulbs give the same illumination is selected for winning. Given: angular retardation of the wheel due to friction and other effects is $2\text{ rad/s}^2$ and take $\ln 2 = 0.7$.
