What happens to the colors of white light when it hits opaque colored surfaces?
any colors that are not part of the color of the object are absorbed by the object. light of the colors that do make up the color of the object are reflected back to your eyes.
Why some objects appear to be different colors when seen in different colors of light?
it depends on what kind of object is that
Are the colors of light that objects absorb the colors you see?
No, the colors you see are the colors that are reflected by the object. White light is composed of several different wavelengths of energy, these different energies correspond to different visible colors. When an object absorbs the light, it absorbs its energy, the rest of the energy is reflected from the surface. That energy is what you see in the form of photons (light). So, if an object looks blue to you, that object is absorbing red light.
When an object is in the sunlight why do you see its color?
Sunlight is a mix of all colors. Pigments in the object reflect different colors of light, which you see.
What is a pattern of different colors of light coming from an object?
rainbow
What happens to the different colors of light when white light shines on a opaque violet object?
it reflects violet and absorbs the other colors

What happens to the different colors of light when white light shines on opaque violet object?
White light contains all the wavelengths of the visible spectrum at equal intensity. The different colors of light, except violet, are absorbed when white light shines on an opaque violet object. The violet color is reflected.

What happens when all colors are absorbed?
When all colours are absorbed in an object you will get the colour black

What object separates white light into many different colors?
a prism
How light splits into a rainbow?
Depending on how the 'lightwaves' are split, ie a prism, or water in the air from rain, what happens is (from my understanding) the light which is composed of many colors, is refracted by the angle/medium of the particular object that the light wave goes through. Depending on the angle and material of the object, the visible colors vary. Dispersion If you look up prisms, this will explain this phenomenon
What happens when light shines on a blue object?
Blue light is reflected, other colors are absorbed.
