What colors of light are reflected by a black object?
white
What appears when all the colors is absorbed by the object?
When light of all colors (wavelengths) is absorbed by an object, the object appears black.
What happens when a light hit a black object?
An object appears black because it absorbs all the colors of the visible spectrum. If we idealize the object to make it perfectly absorptive, it absorbs all of the white light that strikes it and reflects none. In the real world, some light is always reflected. If the object appears black or dark gray, then it reflects small amounts of all colors of the spectrum.
When all colors are absorbed by an object the object appears to be what color?
Black
How do you explain why colors are reflected by an object that appears black?
I would assume it would be because of iridescence of the object. Some things, such as crow feathers, can appear to be bluish or greenish, either because of light or the physical properties of the object.
When all colors are absorbed what color is the item?
The object appears black when no colors are reflected. (In actuality, some light is reflected by all objects, making black simply a very dark gray.)

No, black is a mixture of all colors. Color is produced by reflected light is reflected. Like a red object absorbs all colors but red, which is being reflected and is what you see. Black reflects all colors, and whites absorbs all.

How many colors are there in black?
There are no colors in black ! Colors are governed by the frequency (temperature) with which light is reflected from an object. White has the highest reflection frequency where as black does not reflect at all
What color does an object appear to be if it absorbs all the colors of light?
If an object absorbs all the colors of light, it will appear to be black. It is the reflected part of the spectrum that gives an object its color.
