If you have a blue light showing through a cyan filter what color will it appear?

Shining a blue light through a cyan filter will result in a blue light shining through. As cyan is a combination of blue and green light, it will allow blue and green light to pass through it. Red light will be absorbed by the filter. This is proven by shining a violet or magenta light through the filter and it allowing blue light will shine through. It is shown as well by shining a yellow light through the filter which will result in green light shining through as both violet and yellow are a combination of red the other two primary colours, blue and green.

What is true about the light passing through a filter if the light appears green?

What is true is that the light has a green component. That's why it appears green. The green light can get through. There may have been another or other colors of light present when the light entered the filter, but because the filter is green, the other colors were absorbed. Remember, if an object is a given color, it is that color because it reflects that color and absorbs all others.

What happens when a yellow book in a green filter?

When a yellow book is viewed through a green filter, the filter will absorb most of the yellow light but allow green light to pass through. As a result, the book may appear darker and its yellow color may become less vibrant when viewed through the green filter.

What happens to light when it passes through a red filter?

After pure, white light passes through a red filter, all the other colors in the spectrum will flow out of the other side. My mistake, I had a faulty source. A red light filter will cause the image to appear as different shades of red. Since it is a red filter only red light can pass through. So you finish up with red light. Whether it is focussed to an image or not is of no consequence. As to different shades of red, you will get the shade of red that is passed by the filter.

What color of filter changes red light to another color?

Filters don't change the color of light. They selectively absorb or transmit light based on its color. Anything that comes out of a filter must have been there before the light entered the filter.


What color will the shirt appear to be but white shirt is viewed through a filter that allows only blue light to pass through the filter?

Since the filter allows only blue light to pass through, anything you see through the filter appears either blue or black. Blue if there's any blue light coming from it, or black if there isn't any.
