A red light source and a green light source shine on a white screen what color will the screen be explain answer?
It would be come a white light( it will show up to have a rainbow streak on the screen though)
Is white all color?
Yes whit is a color!!!!! The answer depends whether you are asking about a white light source, or a white surface. Let's hope you are asking about a white surface, because that's a lot easier to explain. A white surface is a surface that reflects all colors of light equally. There, that was easy. A white light source is a whole other topic. It depends now, on what you mean by "white." One definition of white light would be light that contains all visible wavelengths (colors) in equal proportions (for some definition of "equal".) Another definition, would be a light source that a person would perceive as white when it is shined on a white surface. It gets tricky because a light source need not be a full-spectrum light source in order to achieve that effect. For example, most "compact fluorescent" light bulbs, although the look white to your eyes, have a spectrum that consists of three relatively narrow peaks of red, green, and blue. A white LED light, on the other hand, has a strong, narrow blue peak, and then a broad band of yellowish light.
When they are lit some sparklers emit bright white sparkling light speculate on what the light source might be?
Aluminum or magnesium
What is monochromatic source?
A monochromatic source is a source of light of a discrete wavelength. White light is a mixture photons with wavlengths from 390 to 750 nm (what the human eye can detect). The monochrmatic light will have a specific wavelength. For example all photons have wavelength 200 nm.
What color is next to white and what is the farthest from white in the interference pattern when a source of white light is used in Young's Double Slit experiment?
I think the farthest color next to white is red
Is white paper a form of a light source?
No
What do all colors of light combined equal?
White for light source or black (actually dirty brownish) for reflected light. White
A red light source and a green light source shine on a white screen what color will the screen be explain answer?
It would be come a white light( it will show up to have a rainbow streak on the screen though)
A red light source and a green light source shine on a white screen what will the color be?
Yellow. The light is 'additive' and not 'subtractive' like printed inks.
A red light source and a green light source shine on a white screen what color will the screen be?
If the screen is actually white, it will absorb all light and appear black to your eye. If the screen appears white in normal light, all light will be reflected resulting in the combination of green and red (brown/yellow).

A white light is a combination of what?
White light is what we see when light of all (or most) of the frequencies in the visible spectrum are emitted together from the same source. It is the combination of every visible light wave.
Why is called as monocromatic source of light?
Mono chromatic light is emitted by a laser source or by a red Light Emitting Diode. These sources emit a single wavelength of light around 550 nanoMetres. White light from the sun for example is a mixture of many wavelengths mixed together from red to violet to form white light.
How does light change direction through a prism?
it changes to colours of the rainbow, starting with a white light and gradually is altered due to the position of the light source and to violet in which the light fades to the back ground colour; and white light
Why did Sir Newton conclude that the prism was not the source of colors?
the colours were already in the white light.

Aluminum or magnesium
Is White light is made up of an mixture of many colors of light?
White light is what we see when light of all (or most) of the frequencies in the visible spectrum are emitted together from the same source. It is the combination of every visible light wave.
