What color does an object appear to be if it absorbs all the colors of light?
If an object absorbs all the colors of light, it will appear to be black. It is the reflected part of the spectrum that gives an object its color.
If an object absorbs all wavelengths of light except red what color will it appear?
The object will be red, due to the red light of the spectrum being reflected.
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.
What is the color of an object is?
The color of an object are defined by the wavelengths of visible light that the object reflects. This reflected light is picked up by our eyes and interpreted as color. The other wavelengths of light are absored.
What determines the color of an opaque object?
the wavelength of the reflected light :)

How does the color of an object depends on the reflection and the absorption of light?
If it reflects that color of light, you're eyes will see that color being reflected by the object (when the color is being shown on the object, white light contains 'all' colors of visible light). If an object absorbs a color of light you will tend not to see it coming off of the object. Translation: objects will appear the color(s) of light that it reflects. If an object appears red, it reflects red light.
If a substance appears red in color then what color light is reflected?
I think it's mainly the red light that's reflected from the object.
The color of an opaque object is the same as the light that is?
...reflected off of it. For example, leaves appear green as their pigment (chlorophyll) only reflects the wavelength of green light.
How does visible light interact with an object?
The Answer is color. Because color has to do with light and physical properties.

What you see when reflected wavelengths of light reach your eyes?
it sees the color of an object or shine of light
Why does a specific color reflected by an object give color to it?
White light contains all the colors mixed together. A colored object has a pigment on its surface that ABSORBS all these colors except one. This one color is reflected back off the object. Thus, as we see the object by this reflected light coming from the object into our eyes, the object appears to be colored.
The color that an object appears to be depends on the?
angle at which visible light is reflected off the object.
