Why do darker colors absorb the most heat?
White light is a mixture of colors. When white light strikes a dark object little or no energy is reflected. When white light strikes a white object the energy is mostly reflected, not absorbed.Miissmeg.
A material that reflects or absorbs all of the light that strikes it is?
A material that reflects or absorbs any light that strikes it is opaque.Tranlucent or transparent materials allow some or all light to pass through.
How do you see black and white?
BlackAll of the colours that make the white light shine down on the black object and all of the colours that make the white light the light absorbs into the object and no light reflects.WhiteAll of the colours that make the white light shine down on the white object and the light and no light is absorbed into the object but all of the colours that make the white light are reflected into your eyes
When white light strikes a red object all colors except red are?
Absorbed
What happens when a light hit a black object?
An object appears black because it absorbs all the colors of the visible spectrum. If we idealize the object to make it perfectly absorptive, it absorbs all of the white light that strikes it and reflects none. In the real world, some light is always reflected. If the object appears black or dark gray, then it reflects small amounts of all colors of the spectrum.

What happens when white light strikes an object?
Depending on the object, it may be reflected, absorbed, refracted or internally reflected.

What happen when lights strikes an object in black cloth?
When light ray strikes a black object (it does not matter if it is cloth or solid) some of the light is 'absorbed' and some of it is reflected back to the normal of the surface (pependicular). Reflected light continues its path and absorbed light is transormed usually into heat. For example if you leave black and white objects in the desert they will heat but the black one will reach higher temperature. In physics there is an idealistic object called 'perfect black body' and the light which hits it is not reflected but absorbed. This means ALL of the incoming light is transformed into heat and the scientist use this imaginary object to calculate the emission of this body. This is called 'heat emission of a perfect black body'.
What happens when white light strikes a red opaque object. What about blue light. red light. violet light?
When white light strikes a red object, the object would appear red. The object would have reflected the red light within the white light while all other colours would have been absorbed. When blue light strikes a red object, it would appear black as there is no red light in blue light as it is a primary colour. As a result, the blue light would be completely absorbed by the red object. So no light would be reflected from the object. When violet light strikes a red object, it would appear red, as violet is a combination of blue and red light. The blue light would be absorbed while the red light would be reflected. It is good to learn and revise the light spectrum and primary and secondary light colours. Primary light colours are: Red, Green and Blue Secondary light colours are: Yellow, Cyan and Violet The combinations are: Red + Green = Yellow Green + Blue = Cyan Blue + Red = Violet (or Magenta depending on how you have been taught)
What colors of light are reflected by a black object?
white
Why does a black object heat better than white?
White surfaces reflects light - black absorbs it
What color would a strawberry appear to be under a white light?
it would appear black because no red light strikes it
When a object has no color and light hits it what color will it be?
If it absorbs ALL the colors, then it will be white (maybe also black). If light doesn't hit the object, it will be black.
