Because it has no color, therefore nothing to absorb. With light energy, surface colors absorb and reflect various color frequencies (electro-magnetic wavelengths). For instance, blue paint reflects higher frequency wavelengths which our eyes see, and our brains interpret, as blue values, and it absorbs lower range frequencies we would interpret as red and yellow. White surfaces reflect high quantities of all of the visible range of frequencies of electro-magnetic wavelengths, so the frequencies reflected back at the viewer contain all visible color ranges that are contained in the light hitting that surface and appear the same color.
What else can I help you with?
What color reflect the heat?
Light colours. White is best.
What color reflects more heat between white and silver?
It depends if the silver is metallic (shiny) or matte (dull). Metallic silver would reflect more heat than white, but matte silver would reflect less heat than white.
Is heat absorbed transmitted or reflected in white cars?
Heat is absorbed by white cars due to the color's ability to reflect sunlight. White surfaces have a high albedo, meaning they reflect a large portion of the sun's energy and absorb less heat compared to darker colors.
What color cup retains coldness the best?
white. they reflect lightwaves containing heat the best.
Which material will reflect more radiant heat from red sandstone cement plastered surface black marble white marble?
Black marble will reflect less radiant heat compared to white marble, as black surfaces tend to absorb and retain more heat. White marble will reflect more radiant heat due to its lighter color and higher albedo, which limits heat absorption.
Color to wear to stay cool temperature?
White. Dark colours absorb heat, light colours reflect the heat.
Which is a better conductor of heat white color or silver color?
Tricky question. If the surfaces are the same, then silver will absorb more, but in the case of a silver mirror, it will reflect more light, so the white will absorb more. Save
Does the color of an object affect heat flow?
Yes, the color of an object can affect heat flow. Dark-colored objects tend to absorb more heat from sunlight because they absorb a wider range of wavelengths, whereas light-colored objects reflect more heat. This difference in absorption and reflection can impact the temperature of the object.
How does color effect heat?
The darker the color the higher the heat and the lighter the color the less heat
Why is the outside of a fridge white and shiny?
The outer surface of a fridge is typically white and shiny to reflect light and heat, which helps keep the fridge cooler by preventing heat absorption. The white color also helps to easily spot dirt or stains for cleaning.
Which color white or silver absorb the most heat?
Silver tends to reflect more heat than white, while white tends to absorb less heat as it reflects more light and appears brighter. Therefore, silver would usually absorb less heat than white.
What color keeps heat away black or white?
White color reflects most of the heat, while black color absorbs heat, making white color more effective in keeping heat away.
