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 else can I help you with?
Which part of the eye receives the light and determines the color?
The iris receives light and the cone cells located within the cornia determine color
What determines the color of salt solutions?
The color of salt solutions is determined by the presence of metal ions in the solution. Different metal ions can absorb and reflect light in specific ways, leading to a range of colors. For example, copper ions can give a blue or green color, while iron ions can give a yellow or brown color.
Does a coloured light bulb actually produce light of the same colour spectrum?
There are two types of colored bulbs. Some are just regular light bulbs with a semi-transparent color coating. A blue light bulb, for instance, will transmit blue light, absorbing out red. It will transmit smaller amounts of different colored light, but to your eye the light coming from the bulb is blue.Others actually emit light a a certain color, such as a yellow street light which is a sodium-vapor lamp. Overall the color you see is the color that is being emitted or transmitted.
What characteristics determines the color of a star?
Fire
What causes a substance that gives color to something?
A substance gives color to something by selectively absorbing and reflecting certain wavelengths of light. This absorption and reflection of light by the substance's molecules result in the perception of color. The specific chemical structure of the substance determines which colors will be absorbed and reflected.
What attribute of light determines its color?
The attribute of light that determines its color is its wavelength. Different wavelengths of light correspond to different colors that we perceive.
What property of light determines its color?
The wavelength of light determines its color. Different wavelengths of light correspond to different colors in the visible light spectrum.
What determines the color of light that we see?
The color of light that we see is determined by its wavelength. Different wavelengths of light correspond to different colors that we perceive.
What determines the color of a material?
it depends upon what wavelength of light is absorbed
Which property of a light wave determines the color?
The frequency of the light wave determines its color. Higher frequencies correspond to shorter wavelengths and bluer colors, while lower frequencies correspond to longer wavelengths and redder colors.
When light hits an opaque object we see color that the object what?
The color we see is the result of the object absorbing certain wavelengths of light and reflecting others. The reflected light determines the color that reaches our eyes.
Which part of the eye receives the light and determines the color?
The iris receives light and the cone cells located within the cornia determine color
What determines the color of objects that do not emit light?
ii really dont know DD=
What determines color of the stars?
The temperature determines the color of the star!:)
What determines the color of the northern light?
The kinds of particles that bump into each other in the Earth's atmosphere
What determines the color of visible light?
The color of visible light is determined by its wavelength. Shorter wavelengths appear blue or violet, while longer wavelengths appear red or orange.
What property of light determines color?
The property of light that determines color is its wavelength. Different wavelengths of light correspond to different colors in the visible spectrum. For example, shorter wavelengths are associated with colors like blue and violet, while longer wavelengths are associated with colors like red and orange.
