Why does not white light when falls on objects makes them appear as black or white?
Many objects do appear black or white when light falls on them. If they are black, it means that the object is absorbing all wavelengths of visible light and not reflecting any. If they are white, it means that they are reflecting all wavelengths of visible light and not absorbing any. The color of an object is due to the wavelengths of light that it reflects.
Because you see plants as looking green this means plants are absorbing all other colors of light and reflecting the light to your eyes?
yes
Why do black cars get hotter in the sun?
Cars that appear black look that way because they are absorbing the light falling on them rather than reflecting it. Since they are absorbing more light energy than lighter colored cars, they get hotter.
What color is Neptune and why is it that color?
Neptune appears blue due to the methane gasses in the atmosphere absorbing the red light spectrum and reflecting the blue light spectrum back into space.
Does white exist as a color?
Yes. The color white in light represents all visible frequencies.The reason that a "white" object appears "colorless" is that it is reflecting the entire range of colors. A "black" object is reflecting much less light, absorbing light energy across the entire range of colors.
The material that gives paint its color by absorbing some colors of light and reflecting others?
More or less yes, basically the red paint absorbs all of the colours of light except for the red light which is reflected. It is this reflected red light which we see.
When you see an object of a particular color say green what wavelengths of light are absorbed by the object What wavelengths are reflected?
When you see an object it's because light is reflected from it to your eye. If it appears green it is because it is only reflecting green light to your eye. That means it is absorbing all the other colours. If something appears red it is because it is reflecting red light to your eye and absorbing all the other colours. Sometimes things absorb most, but not all, red and some, but not all, blue and we see purple.
