Which colors are absorbed by a black shirt?
the black skirt obsorbes every color in the rainbow. see light the primary colors are the secondary colors of the color wheel. the light(comes from sun)colors mixed all together makes white otherwise the world would be black. the colors from paint markers and cryans when mixed all together makes black. hope this helps u:)
Why is nitrogen oxide colourless while nitrogen dioxide is brown in colour?
It all depends on the frequencies of light the compounds reflect and absorb. The color you see is reflected light at a certain frequency(corresponding to a combination of certain colors in the electromagnetic spectrum), while the rest is absorbed. For example, the Nitrogen Oxide molecule absorb light at a frequency out of the visible range, and reflect all colors we can see. That is why we see that Nitrogen gas is a white gas(if the gas if concentrated enough). As for nitrogen dioxide, the molecules absorb a certain color. All the other colors are reflected as a brown color.
Why do things have different color?
This answer is very scientific.You see, the only reason you see something is because light reflects off of it and into your eyes. Light in itself is what is call electromagnetic radiation.Light has what is called wavelength. this means that different wavelengths of light will have different properties. Simple right?Now, when light is in its basic form, it is all the wavelengths (colors) mixed together. However, when it hits some, a leaf for instance, some of those wavelengths (colors) are absorbed and some are reflected.When the light hits the leaf all the wavelengths (colors) but green are absorbed. The green light is reflected back into your eye, causing the leaf to appear green.--**Basicly**--all things absorb some colors and reflect some colors. leaves absorb everything but green light, and that green light is reflected back into your eye.Things that are white reflect all of the colors, while things that are black absorb all the colors.
How can you tell for sure if a filament type bulb contains xenon or halogen elements?
You could shine white light through it, divide the light that comes out the other side into the full spectrum of colors, see which colors were absorbed by the bulb and are therefore missing from the spectrum, and consult a table to find out what element corresponds to that pattern of color bands.
How do color combinations make one color?
Every color that the human eye can detect are all made of three Primary colors ( Yellow, Red, and Blue ). We can mix these Primary colors to get all the different variations we can observe in the visible light spectrum. If you've ever seen a prism or a rainbow then you've seen the process of refraction. Color originates in light. Sunlight, as we perceive it, is colorless. In reality, a rainbow is testimony to the fact that all the colors of the spectrum are present in white light. An example is if you were to look at an apple. All the "invisible" colors of sunlight shine on the apple. The surface of a red apple absorbs all the colored light rays, except for those corresponding to red, and reflects this color to the human eye. The eye receives the reflected red light and sends a message to the brain. This process works the same for every color that we see.
What color is reflected if you see a blue color?
Blue because all colors are absorbed except blue.
What colors do red absorbed?
Red is a color that you see as a result of what your looking at absorbing all the other colors except red
Why do you see things as certain colors?
Because colors are absorbed the color reflected of is the color we see. For example apples are red every other color is absorbed but red is reflected off the apple.
What do absorbed do?
Red is a color that you see as a result of what your looking at absorbing all the other colors except red
What method to use for color visible?
Colors reflect of a surface, and the other colors are absorbed, say it was a blue dress. All the other colors would be absorbed, and blue would reflect so you could see it.
How is color made?
Colors arent the 3 primary colors, its the 7 colors of the rainbow ROYGBIV(Red,Orange,Yellow,Green,Blue,Indigo,Violet) What happens is... well the life of all color is light, without light there is no color, cause light has all these colors (ROYGBIV) When something is red, that means that everycolor from light is being absorbed EXCEPT Red, red is being refracted or kicked out, when something is black, non are being absorbed they are all being refracted, when something is white, all the colors are being absorbed. When there is no light, there is no color, and we wont see color cause it would be to dark to see.
Why does black absorb colours that are are close to it in the spectrum?
Black absorbs all colors because the absense of all colors makes black. If all colors are absorbed, then no color is returned to your eyes and you see nothing (black).
When you see colors what color is reflected and what color is absorbed?
Black is absorbed! White is reflected. :)
When all light is reflected back all light is said to be?
White light. The colors that we see are actually the colors NOT absorbed by the object they strike: for example, if the sun's light strikes a pink triangle, it is because the triangle absorbs all the frequencies of light EXCEPT for the color pink. If the only color we see is green reflected off a car, then all wavelengths of color are absorbed except for green.
Does red absorb colors or color?
If you are asking what colors of the natural light spectrum are absorbed by the color red, then the answer would be every color except red. Any surface or object that you perceive as a certain color means that every color of sunlight is being absorbed by that surface except the color or colors that you can see. Sunlight is the combination of every conceivable or perceivable color; so in order to see an object as any one specific color means all of those other colors need to be 'stopped' or canceled out.
Which colors of light do you see when you look at an opaque object?
All the colors that are NOT absorbed by the object.
How do we color?
We see colors by the different wavelength that is not absorbed (or what's being reflected) by the object that we see. These objects do NOT own colors. It's the surfaces of the objects that allows things to reflect or be absorbed. Ex. When I see a red book, the other colors such as orange, yellow, green, blue etc. are being absorbed by that red book from a light source except for the color red. The reflected color(s) (in the example, the color red) is then captured or perceived by our eyes. Another perspective of "how we see colour?" is that there needs to be some form of light in order for us to see colour and without that light, we wouldn't be able to see colour, let alone see at all. A bonus: If you see white, the object reflects all the wavelength or all the colours. If you see black, the object absorbs all the wavelengths or absorbs all the colours.
