What colors do you see when you look at an opaque object?
Actually, it depends on witch object it is. If the opaque object is brown, then that means the object absorbed most of the colors of the white light and reflects mostly the brown colors.
Why do opaque objects appear to hve different colors?
This applies not only to opaque objects. The basic idea is that white light is a mixture of different colors, and objects tend to reflect the different colors - the components of white light - in different proportions. For example, an object that reflects most of the red light but not much of the other colors will look red.
What determines the color you see when you look at an opaque object?
light
If all the colors of light are reflected to eyes an object will look?
White
If object is white in sunlight what color will it be in green light?
If an object is white in sunlight it will be green in green light. A white object reflects all wavelengths (colors) of light that shine on it. If only green light shines on it, that color will be reflected and the object will look green.

What color can you see when you look at an opaque object?
It depends on which frequencies are reflected off the object.
What would a blue object look like in a cyan light?
It would look cyan because the colors would be filtered.
If object is white in sunlight what color will it be in green light?
If an object is white in sunlight it will be green in green light. A white object reflects all wavelengths (colors) of light that shine on it. If only green light shines on it, that color will be reflected and the object will look green.
What does a blue object look like in yellow light?
It's called "A Blue Object" because when light of many colors falls on it, it reflects the blue light toward your eyes and absorbs all the other colors, including yellow. So if yellow light is the only light falling on it, the light is all absorbed, none is reflected to your eyes, and the object appears black.
Can an opaque object produce a shadow?
Yes. Definitely it produces but its intensity will be low.answer 2 In general ONLY opaque objects will produce a shadow. A truly transparent object would not produce a shadow. Look up Opaque in your dictionary.
What cause the color you see when you look at an opaque object?
White light is made up of all the colours of the rainbow. When light hits an object, some colours (wavelengths) are absorbed, and some reflected. The colour you see is a combination of all the reflected colours.
What happens when the sun shines on a white surface?
The light from the sun, which is made up of equal parts of red, green and blue (even though it may not look it), will be reflected off of the white surface, staying white as the white surface reflects equal parts of red, green and blue.
What colour is black?
Black is technically not a colour, merely an absence of colour. Light consists of seven colors, the object which will absorb all colors look black.
