What else can I help you with?
Is the color spectrum simply a small segment of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Yes, visible light (the color spectrum) is a tiny range of the full range of electromagnetic waves. In the related Wikipedia link, there is a picture that shows the colors 'crammed in' to a small range of the spectrum.
Which colors of light have the shortest wavelengths?
Blue and violet light have the shortest wavelengths in the visible light spectrum.
A plant whose leaves are reddish yellow is NOT absorbing light from which wavelengths of the visible light spectrum?
The plant is not absorbing light from wavelengths in the red and yellow range of the visible light spectrum. Instead, it is reflecting these wavelengths which gives it its reddish-yellow color.
What color has the longest wave lenght?
The longest visible wavelengths are thoseat the red end of the spectrum (rainbow).
Where on the electromagnetic spectrum can see the color violet?
Violet is found at the short-wavelength end of the visible spectrum, with wavelengths approximately between 380 to 450 nanometers. It is adjacent to ultraviolet light, which has even shorter wavelengths. In the electromagnetic spectrum, violet is the color that is closest to the ultraviolet range.
What color reflects all of the colors of light?
White light reflects all colors of light, as it contains all the wavelengths of the visible spectrum.
When an object reflects all wavelengths of visible light what color do you see?
When an object reflects all wavelengths of visible light, you see it as white. This is because white light is composed of all the colors of the visible spectrum, and an object that reflects all these wavelengths appears white to the human eye. Conversely, if an object absorbs all wavelengths, it would appear black.
Why does an object appear yellow?
An object appears yellow because it reflects wavelengths of light in the yellow part of the visible spectrum and absorbs other wavelengths. Our eyes perceive this reflected light as the color yellow.
Which color reflects the most energy?
I believe the color is white. Black absorbs the most energy. That's why the color black gets hot quick, but not white.
What color does not reflect any light?
Black. it absorbs the entire visible spectrum, whereas white reflects the entire visible spectrum.
A red pigment reflects what color?
A pigment that appears to be red is reflecting the "red" portion of the visible light spectrum.
Is the color spectrum simply a small segment of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Yes, visible light (the color spectrum) is a tiny range of the full range of electromagnetic waves. In the related Wikipedia link, there is a picture that shows the colors 'crammed in' to a small range of the spectrum.
Which colors of light have the shortest wavelengths?
Blue and violet light have the shortest wavelengths in the visible light spectrum.
If light of all visible wavelengths is combined the results appear to be what color?
If the lights from all visible wavelengths are combined, they appear to be a white color.
A plant whose leaves are reddish yellow is NOT absorbing light from which wavelengths of the visible light spectrum?
The plant is not absorbing light from wavelengths in the red and yellow range of the visible light spectrum. Instead, it is reflecting these wavelengths which gives it its reddish-yellow color.
What is an Object's actual color in white light?
An object's color is comprised of the wavelengths of light that it reflects - so an orange object reflects reds and yellows while absorbing blues and greens, while a green object is the opposite.
What color has the longest wave lenght?
The longest visible wavelengths are thoseat the red end of the spectrum (rainbow).
