Seeing as grass is green, PETANDPEZ would have to say that the colour reflected is green. However, when you see BROWN grass, green light is still being reflected only at a much lower intensity.

Why happens when light rays hits the green grass?

The green color is reflected and the other colors are absorbed


What is it about reflected light waves that enables us to see different colors?

When white light, which contains "all colors" of light, strikes an object, that object will absorb some light and will reflect some light. The colors that are not absorbed will be reflected, and those reflected colors will make up the color of the objects. Let's look at an example. If white light strikes grass, most of the green is reflected, and the reds, oranges, yellows and blues are absorbed. That's why the grass appears green to us. The grass could be said to be a "green reflecting" material. Red reflecting materials appear red, and blue reflecting materials appear blue. Further, different combinations of reflected light allow us to see the many variations in color and in color intensity that we are able to detect.


Why is grass seen as the color green through human eyes?

The perception of color is due to the reflected light. When light falls on a blade of grass, it absorbs all the electromagnetic waves in the visible spectrum, except green light, which it reflects. This reflected green light falls onto the rod cells of our iris, which perceive it as green.

Why is grass green in color?

All plants contain the molecule Chlorophyll which is used by most plants in the process of photosynthesis. This Chlorophyll molecule absorbs Red and Blue light to use the energy from these wavelengths leaving green light to be reflected. It is this reflected green light that makes the leaves of plants look green.
