What color is being reflected to our eyes when we see a red apple?
We see red when red light reaches the retinas in our eyes. A non-luminous object that looks red is absorbing every color of light that hits it except red light, which it reflects.
What color would a green object be if you shined an orange light on it?
A "green" object is called "green" because that's the only color of light it reflects, and it absorbs any other color. If orange light is shining on it, then there's no light for it to reflect, and it looks black to you.
What color will absorb the most light energy?
Black absorbs all of the incident visible light. That's why it looks black.
Why does a red and green jumper appears to be a red and black jumper under red light?
White light is made up of all of the colors of the spectrum, so the green looks green because the green light is reflected back to your eyes while the other colors are absorbed. Under a red light, the green light is filtered out so there is no green to reflect so it looks black.
Are the colors of light that objects absorb the colors you see?
No, the colors you see are the colors that are reflected by the object. White light is composed of several different wavelengths of energy, these different energies correspond to different visible colors. When an object absorbs the light, it absorbs its energy, the rest of the energy is reflected from the surface. That energy is what you see in the form of photons (light). So, if an object looks blue to you, that object is absorbing red light.
Why chlorophyll appears green to us in terms of what happens to different wavelengths of light that srike the cholrophyll?
Green wave length of light is reflected hence chlorophyll looks green .

What does the color amethyst look like?

Why does a red fish look black in the ocean greater than water depth of 10 meters?
Has to do with reflected light, its wavelength, and how water effects it. Red light cannot travel as deep in water as green or blue. Therefor, when a red fish goes deeper the needed RED LIGHT cannot reach it and will not be reflected off the fish. SO! It looks black because it is REFLECTING no color. Thats what color is... reflected light.
How does color violet looks like?
Little brighter than purple.
Why dark looks black in color?
Absorbs all different wavelengths of visible white light, therefore no frequencies are reflected - we detect the absence of frequencies as black!
Why green color of laser light replaces its own color in fluorescent orange or pink surfaces to yellow or orange?
because, yellow and pink surfaces emit green and red light(pink) or green and blue for yellow. White light shines green, red an blue light. So they are all reflected, making the surface its color. Green lasers only emit green light so only the green is reflected so the surface looks green.
Chlorophyll of plant looks green because green light is what to your eyes?
reflected

The clouds contain sulfuric acid, and it believed that this absorbs some of the blue light, so what is reflected back looks yellow.
What does a African violet look like?

Why blood looks red when you see it?
== == Blood looks red because the hemoglobin absorbs blue-yellow light when bound with oxygen. The reflected light is then red.
