The color green is not being absorbed by a red apple. This is because red apples reflect red wavelengths and absorb other colors, including green.
Things are colored because different objects absorb and reflect light differently. When light interacts with a surface, certain wavelengths are absorbed by the object, while others are reflected back to our eyes. The color we see is determined by the wavelengths of light that are reflected.
The color red appears red because objects that are red reflect red light and absorb other colors of light. Our eyes detect this reflected red light and send signals to the brain, which interprets it as the color red.
A red apple absorbs mainly red and blue wavelengths of light, while reflecting green and yellow wavelengths. This absorption and reflection process gives the apple its characteristic red color.
Candy apple red is made by mixing equal parts of red and white paint, which creates a bright red shade resembling the color of a classic candy apple. Adding a touch of black or dark red can deepen the color and adjust the tone to be more true to a candy apple red.
A bright red color is a vivid shade characterized by a strong, vibrant red hue. It is often associated with energy, passion, and intensity. Examples include the color of a ripe red apple or a stop sign.
When white light hits a red apple, the apple absorbs all the colors in the white light except for red. The red color is reflected off the apple and that is what we see. The other colors are absorbed by the apple's pigments.
A red apple absorbs most colors of light except for red light, which is reflected off the apple's surface. The red color we perceive is the result of the apple absorbing all other colors and reflecting red light.
When a green apple appears black under a red light, it is because the red light does not contain wavelengths that correspond to the green color of the apple. The red light is absorbed by the apple, causing it to appear black as there is no green light being reflected off the surface to be perceived by our eyes. Each color of light corresponds to a specific wavelength, and when the light's wavelength does not match the object's color, the object will appear different.
At 700 nm, red light is being absorbed. This wavelength corresponds to the red end of the visible light spectrum.
If red light is absorbed, the color seen will be the complementary color of red, which is cyan.
All but red.
Since the apple is green, it would absorb any light that is not the same color as the apple. In this instance, the apple would appear very dark or even black since there is no green in the red light you are shining on the apple. A popular science experiment involves a shoe box, a piece of colored plastic or glass, a few objects (such as the apple), and a flashlight. If a red apple is being used with a red filter, the apple would appear to be a bright red since the apple is also red. The red filter allows the red color being reflected off the apple to pass through. Switch the filter to a green one, and the apple appears black since the filter effectively filters out all colors except green.
Colors arent the 3 primary colors, its the 7 colors of the rainbow ROYGBIV(Red,Orange,Yellow,Green,Blue,Indigo,Violet) What happens is... well the life of all color is light, without light there is no color, cause light has all these colors (ROYGBIV) When something is red, that means that everycolor from light is being absorbed EXCEPT Red, red is being refracted or kicked out, when something is black, non are being absorbed they are all being refracted, when something is white, all the colors are being absorbed. When there is no light, there is no color, and we wont see color cause it would be to dark to see.
It's the way color reflects. An apple may not be red, because color pixils (alldifferent colors ) get absorbed into the thing ( in this case an apple ) and so the apple absorbs one color mostly and that color reflects back to our eyes. I may not have done a good job explaining this.
red or green?
