What is the color that an object appears to be determined by?
It is determined by the wavelengths of light that reach your eyes.
What is acts as a color filter?
A pigment in a material, such as a dye or ink, can act as a color filter by selectively absorbing certain wavelengths of light and transmitting others. The absorbed wavelengths are subtracted from the light passing through, resulting in a tinted appearance.
What is a color filter and how does it work?
Color filters transmit visible wavelengths of light. Different colors respond to different wavelengths of light. Some filters work by absorbing light, while others reflect.
What dominant color appears for sodium street lamp?
The sodium yellow D lines at wavelengths of 588.9950 and 589.5924 nanometers.
What is the luster of gold and silver?
Metallic. Both these precious metals are shiny. Gold absorbs some wavelengths that we can see, thus the yellow color; silver does not absorb these wavelengths and so appears "white"
What appears when all the colors is absorbed by the object?
When light of all colors (wavelengths) is absorbed by an object, the object appears black.
What are color wavelengths?
The longest visible wavelengths are red,
What color has the most color?
Technically white. Color is from wavelengths of light being reflected, and white is a reflection of all wavelengths
What color reflects wavelengths of the visible spectrum that hit it?
The color white reflects all wavelengths of the visible spectrum. That is why it is the brightest color.
What color appears on a white wall when a cyan light is shown through a magenta filter?
green
Why plants look like green?
The color that something appears is related to the wavelengths of light that it absorbs. White light contains many different wavelengths. Different objects absorb different wavelengths contained in light. The color than an object appears to our eyes is actually determined by the wavelength of light in the visible spectrum that the object does not absorb. Instead the object reflects this light back at us.
What color light does the chlorophyll in plants absorb best?
chlorophyll reflects green in color because it absorbs red color than any other at higher wavelengths. as green is the complimentary color of red it appears green in color
