Why do red object's look black in blue light?

Red and blue are primary colours therefore they do not contain any other colour. When a blue light is shone onto a red object, all the blue light is absorbed by the red object, and as no red light is being shone for the red object to reflect, no light will be reflected from it and it will appear to be black. It is important to remember that physical colours will only reflect it's light colour equivalent. All other colours are absorbed. So red will reflect red, green will reflect green, and red will absorb green and so on.

What happens when red light is shone onto a wall?

Any object that has light shone on it would appear in a particular color because the said object absorbs all the other colors of the spectrum and reflects one single color. when the light itself consists of a single color, the color of the object gets modified because the reflected light contains the color of the light and then part that is reflected. For ex, the wall in the question would appear red if the light is only one wavelength but would appear as a combination of red and its own natural color if the light is a combination of different wavelengths.
