What else can I help you with?
When you see colors what color is reflected and what color is absorbed?
Black is absorbed! White is reflected. :)
What colors are reflected from black?
no color can be reflected from black because it absorbs all the light!!! but anything can be reflected off of white and all those light colors...
How is color reflected?
Color is reflected when light strikes an object and some wavelengths are absorbed while others are reflected. The reflected wavelengths determine the color that our eyes perceive. Objects appear white when all wavelengths are reflected, and black when all wavelengths are absorbed.
Is black an actual color?
Technically, black is the absence of color. When light is absorbed and no color is reflected, we perceive it as black. In terms of pigment, black is a color that can be created by combining various pigments together.
What color does an object appear if all of the colors are reflected?
White is the presence of all color, black is the absence of color
Is Black comprised of every color in the spectrum?
No, black is the absence of color. It is created when all colors are absorbed and none are reflected.
Why is no color reflected from black color?
If you are talking about 'subtractive' color - like the color of your pants or a chair or a car then it is because black is the presence of all colors and the color reflected back at your eye is literally the combination of them all. It isn't that no color is reflected back - it is that all of them are and so the effect that we see, in a prism, let's say, is prevented because the light - as it reflects upon our eyes - isn't able to separate any one of the colors from the rest. In 'additive' colors - like the colors on your TV screen or on your computer monitor - black is the absence of all color and white is the presence of all color. Additive color is created with light itself. If there is no light - there is no color - and that is where you find a truly "color-free" black .
What color do you see when red light is reflected on a green surface?
When red light is reflected on a green surface, you would see black. This is because red light is absorbed by the green surface, rather than being reflected back to your eyes.
How do we perceive the color black?
We perceive the color black when objects absorb all wavelengths of light and reflect none back to our eyes. This lack of reflected light is interpreted by our brains as the color black.
Why do black objects are seen black?
The "color" black is not really a color. Black is the absence of light. Black objects have pigments that absorb all light and, therefore, none is reflected for us to be able to see.
Is black the base of colors?
No, black is a mixture of all colors. Color is produced by reflected light is reflected. Like a red object absorbs all colors but red, which is being reflected and is what you see. Black reflects all colors, and whites absorbs all.
What is the color black made out of?
Black is not a color in the traditional sense, as it is the absence of light. When all colors are combined and no light is reflected, we perceive it as black. Pigments like carbon black or dyes can also create the color black by absorbing most light.
