Because every material has unique allowed energy levels, the electromagnetic radiation emitted from them, which is equal to the energy of the higher excited state minus the energy of the lower excited state (or ground state) are also going to be unique. Since color is based on an electromagnetic wave's frequency, which in turn is proportional to energy, these unique waves give unique colors.

Why different colors appeared by different material?

White light is a mixture of different colors. Different materials have different surface properties; as a result, one material may reflect a larger percentage of red light, and a smaller percentage of other colors, such as blue or green light - thus, it will appear red. Another material may reflect more green light than other colors, so it will appear more green.


Do solids come in different colors?

Yes, solids can come in different colors due to various factors such as their chemical composition, the presence of impurities, and how they interact with light. For example, minerals like quartz can appear in different colors depending on trace elements, while dyes and pigments can be added to materials to achieve specific hues. Additionally, the physical structure of a solid, such as its crystal arrangement, can also affect its color.

What are the different color spectra of a LED?

LEDs can emit light in different color spectra based on the materials used in the construction of the LED. Common colors include red (630-700nm), green (510-550nm), blue (450-495nm), and white (mix of different colors). Other colors like yellow, orange, and ultraviolet can also be produced by LEDs.


What determines the colors seen when light exits a raindrop?

The colors seen when light exits a raindrop are determined by the refraction, dispersion, and reflection of light within the raindrop. Light entering the raindrop is refracted, dispersed into its component colors, and then reflected internally before exiting, creating a spectrum of colors known as a rainbow.

Why can you see people?

You can see people because light reflects off of them and then hits your retina (rods and cones) and a signal is sent to your brain. Different materials absorb different colors (wave lengths) of light, so that makes the different colors.

Why do things have color?

Things have color because of the way they interact with light. Different materials absorb and reflect light in different ways, which creates the colors we see.

What gives things color and how does it work?

Color is determined by the way objects interact with light. When light shines on an object, it absorbs some colors and reflects others. The colors that are reflected are what we see. Different materials absorb and reflect light in different ways, creating the variety of colors we perceive.
