Yellow light. They make a "tricolor" LED that glows red when DC biased in one direction, green when DC biased in the other direction and yellow when AC biased. There are only two diodes in it - a red and a green. When you AC bias this thing, both diodes glow and...you get yellow!
Purple/violet light results when red and blue light are mixed, but the exact color depends on the relative intensities of the component colors.
White light.
It is yellow-- mixing red and green PAINT produces brown; mixing red and green LIGHT produces yellow.
Mixing the primary colors of light produce white light because white light has it's own wavelength that will refract and reflect at different angles.green blue and red light rays are the certain combination for white light. Paint doesn't have the luxury of wavelengths!
AnswerRed and yellow light make white light: mixing a primary light colour (red, blue and green) with any secondary light colour (cyan, magenta and yellow) make white all of the time.
Green light - Green, White light - Green, Red light - Black
It is Blue, Green and Red that produce white light. The Blue Yellow and Red is on paint mixing. The white light with all spectrum at same portion but human eye can sense the light only at 3 peak portion of spectrum Blue (420nm) Green (534nm) and Red (564nm). Our brain estimate color in between from intensity of these 3 portion of light hit the eye.
It is yellow-- mixing red and green PAINT produces brown; mixing red and green LIGHT produces yellow.
light brown
Unlike mixing pigment, which is an additive process, mixing light, such as stage and film light, is a cancellation process. Red, green, and blue are mixed to make white light.
The paint absorbs blue light, which means red and green light are preferentially reflected and red and green combined appear yellow.This may be the reverse of what you learned in art class; the reason is that mixing pigmentsinvolves subtractiveprimary colors and mixing light involves additivecolors. Shine a red and a green light on the same spot and it will appear yellow.

biggest difference is that in light- the primary colors are red blue and green. Whereas in paint pigments its red blue and yellow
When mixing paint (subtractive) red and green gives a brown color. When red and green light are combined (additive, e.g., using diodes) a yellow color is seen.
When it comes to light, green is a primary color and yellow is the secondary. I cannot explain why this is, but it is how it works (Possibly because it is about transmitting light and not reflecting, but that doesnt explain why red and blue stay the same)
Televisions, and nearly all other computer screens use red, blue and green because they are the three colours light is made of. This is different to what colour you get by mixing paint. Colours are created by which different parts of the light spectrum an object reflects. Mixing paint which reflects blue with paint which reflects yellow will create a combination which reflects green. In the light spectrum: Blue + Green = Aqua (Light blue) Green + Red = Yellow Red + Blue = Magenta (Pink)
Red is a primary color, mixing of any colors will not give you red. Secondary colors are green, orange and purple and are created by mixing 2 primary colors. Purple is made by mixing red and blue. Orange is made by mixing red and yellow, green comes from mixing blue and yellow.
Hope this helps: Mixing Colors Have you ever wondered what the world would be like if there were no colors? What if there were only a few colors? It would probably be a very boring world compared to the one we live in now. Everyday you are surrounded by many different colors that come in different shades and hues. These are the results of color mixing. Today, we are going to learn about two different types of color mixing: additive color mixing and subtractive color mixing. Mixing Color Lights Mixing color light is called additive color mixing because the combined colors are formed by adding light from two or more light sources, which will give more illumination than any of the lights by themselves. In other words, the brightness of the lights is added together. For example, adding green light and blue light produces cyan light, which is brighter than its two components. Like in painting, all colors of light can be made from mixing three primary colors. Do you know the primary colors for light? In painting, the three primary colors are yellow, blue, and red, but for light they are RED, GREEN, and BLUE. Red and green light make yellow light. Green and blue light make cyan light. Blue and red light make magenta light. What do you think Red + Green + Blue light make? What is the brightest color of light Mixing color lights is used in theatre performances to create a dramatic effect. It is also used in television and computer monitors to create the full range of colors that give you the colorful cartoons or video games that you see and play.
