Light produced by mixing all colors of the spectrum?

Answer 1

When all colors of light are mixed, we get white light.

When Red and Green are mixed, we get yellow light. ( Like a stoplight: Red then Yellow then Green)

When Green and Blue are mixed, we get cyan light. (Remember that Great Britain is a Country) When Red and Blue are mixed, we get magenta light. (Remember that Rhythm and Blues is Music)

Answer 2

White light is a mixture of all visible wavelengths. You can see this if you take a disc, split it into 6 then colour in each section red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. Spin the disc and you'll see a sort of dirty white colour. This is because your pencils didn't truly match the spectrum colours - but it gives you an idea of the theory!

For those with an enquiring mind you might be wondering why I missed indigo from the list. This is because I've never seen indigo on a rainbow or a prism splitting white light. It has been argued that Isaac newton didn't either. It seems odd to go from blue to violet using a deeper shade as intermediate. There is a school of thought that says Newton added indigo because he felt that 7 was a 'better' number than 6. It's the same school of thought that gives us 5 senses, ignoring the sense of hunger, thirst, spacial awareness, temperature etc.
