Does blue and red light pass through a blue filter?

If red light passed through the filter, then it would not be a blue filter. When a broad range of colors encounters the blue filter, by far the greatest share of the light that comes out of the other side is blue light, with very small amounts of other colors.


What color would white light appear viewed through red filter and pure blue?

Red or blue. The reason a red filter looks and is red, is because only red light comes through it, and the same can be said about a blue filter allowing only blue light through. Other colors are absorbed by the dyes in the filter. If white light enters a red filter, then red light comes out, and the same goes for blue.


When a continuous spectrum of light passes through a red filter the red absorbs the red wavelengths true or fasle?

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.

Will a white carpet appear red when viewed through a red filter because the filter absorbs red lght only?

Ooooh ! You were right on track to nail the statement perfectly, right on down toalmost the end of it.The red filter doesn't absorb red only. It passesred only, and absorbs everythingelse. Hint hint: That's why it looks red ... because no matter what enters the filter,only the red comes out the other side.The carpet usually appears white because all colors are shining off of it. When allthose colors enter the red filter, only the red comes out, so the carpet appears red.
