What happens when light energy hits an object?
The light gets reflected from the object and into your eyes so you can see
Is red light reflected or absorbed by an object if the object appears red to your eyes?
Reflected
If all the colors of light are reflected to eyes an object will look?
White
What you see when reflected wavelengths of light reach your eyes?
it sees the color of an object or shine of light
What is the color of an object is?
The color of an object are defined by the wavelengths of visible light that the object reflects. This reflected light is picked up by our eyes and interpreted as color. The other wavelengths of light are absored.

Is red light reflected or absorbed by an object if the object appeares to your eyes?
Reflected
Is red light reflected or absorbed by an object if the object appears red to your eyes?
Reflected
Why you can see?
We can see because our eyes are receptive to the lightwaves reflected off objects.

How light determines color?
White light contains all colors, as white light hits an object certain colors (ranges of wavelength and frequency) are absorbed by the object while others are reflected. The colors reflected are what are seen by our eyes, thus those colors reflected dictate the color of the object. For example, the average green plant reflects light at frequencies of 5.76 x10^14 (green) which then is seen by our eyes and our brains then determine the object is green
What is the color of an object is?
The color of an object are defined by the wavelengths of visible light that the object reflects. This reflected light is picked up by our eyes and interpreted as color. The other wavelengths of light are absored.
Why does a specific color reflected by an object give color to it?
White light contains all the colors mixed together. A colored object has a pigment on its surface that ABSORBS all these colors except one. This one color is reflected back off the object. Thus, as we see the object by this reflected light coming from the object into our eyes, the object appears to be colored.
How does light determine an objects's color?
Light determine an object's by the wavelength of light that reach to your eyes.light can reach your eyes after being reflected by an object,transmitted through an object,or emitted by an object.When your eyes receive the light,they send signals to your brain.Your brain interprets the signals as colors.
Can your eyes only see colors that bounce off or are reflected by an object?
Yes, everything you see is the light that is reflected by objects/materials. It is the properties of a material that determines the color of the light it reflects.
Is it true that we see an object when light from our eyes hit that objects?
No, that's not true. It's the other way round - light from the object hits our eyes. We see the light that enters our eye.
