A red ball appears red in light because it reflects red wavelengths of light while absorbing other colors. Our eyes perceive the reflected red light, giving the ball its red color.
if a red cricket ball was viewd in red light it would appear to be the colour of black or blue that's what colour you would be if it hit youin the face lol.
A black ball would appear black in red light because black objects absorb all colors of light and do not reflect any. Therefore, in red light, the black ball will not reflect any light and will appear black.
A red ball would appear black in blue light because red objects absorb blue light and reflect little to no light of that wavelength. This causes the red object to not reflect any light back to our eyes, leading us to perceive it as black in blue light.
It would appear to be red because it can only reflect the red light.
The blue ball will absorb some of the red light and reflect the rest. Since red and blue are on opposite ends of the color spectrum, the blue ball will appear darker and might look purple or black under red light.

The ball itself doesn't actually have a color. It simply has got the ability to reflect Red light, and we see it as having a red color. Light is buildt up by different wavelengts of light known as colors. All colors together form a warm white light. You can see the different colors of the sunlight if you use a prism. In any case, if you use only a blue light, Only the wavelength for blue, then the ball will appear Black because Blue does not have any Red in it. The Ball can not reflect red light if there is no red light to reflect :-)
It bounces off (is reflected) by the surface of the basketball. If some of the reflected light reaches your retina then you will see the ball.
While the ball would still be green it will appear black. Anything green absorbed all colours except green. The green light is reflected to your eyes which makes it look green. Thus in red light (with no green in it) the red will be absorbed and no green light can be reflected to your eyes so the ball will look black.
Color and light are the same thing A color is a spesific wavelength of light. All the colors together makes white light. A red ball reflect "only" the red wavelength of the light, thereby appearing red. If you shine on it with a blue light and blue light only, the ball will appear Black, simply because there is no Red light to reflect.
Why is it called a "black" ball in the first place ? Most likely because it absorbsany light that hits it, regardless of color, and nothing ever bounces off of it.That reasoning gives you your answer right there: You can shine red light on it ...or green or purple or fuschia, mauve, burgundy, teale or turquoise ... and it'll stilllook black.
A red flag would appear red in red light because the color of an object is determined by the light it reflects. In this case, the red flag would reflect red light, making it appear red.
The red ball reflects red light and absorbs all other colors of light. When you see the ball, it is because red light is being reflected off the surface of the ball and entering your eye.
