When white light strikes a red object all colors except red are?

absorbed by the object, while red is reflected. This reflected red light is what we see, giving the object its red color.


What color light is absorbed by an object that appears red under white light?

The object absorbs all colors of light except for red, which is reflected off the object and is what we perceive as the color red.


What color is a green object if red light strikes it?

The green object will appear black because red light is absorbed by green objects.


Is red light reflected or absorbed by an object if the object appears red to your eyes?

The object is reflecting red light. When we see an object as red, it appears that color because it is reflecting red light and absorbing other colors in the visible light spectrum.


What color is a white object when red and cyan light shine on it?

The white object will appear red because all colors of light are absorbed by the object except for red and cyan. The red light is reflected to our eyes, resulting in the object appearing red.


How color of an object depends upon which colors are reflected and absorbed?

The color of an object depends on the wavelengths of light that are reflected by the object's surface. When light strikes an object, some wavelengths are absorbed while others are reflected. The reflected wavelengths then determine the color that we perceive. For example, an object appears red because it reflects red light and absorbs other colors.


If red light is absorbed what color is seen?

If red light is absorbed, the color seen will be the complementary color of red, which is cyan.


What happens to light when it hits a coloured object?

When light hits a colored object, the wavelengths of light that are not absorbed by the object are reflected off the object's surface. The color we perceive is determined by the wavelengths of light that are reflected. For example, if an object absorbs all wavelengths except for red, we see the object as red.


What color of light bounces off red?

Red light is mostly absorbed by objects, so it doesn't bounce off much. However, if red light does bounce off an object, it will retain its red color.


When light waves strike a red object what happens to the light waves of all colors except red?

Basically three things can happen to light as it strikes an object. It can be reflected, absorbed, or it can pass through. For simplicity, assume the object is not transparent; in that case, any light that is not reflected is absorbed.


What is happening when you see the color red?

When you see the color red, you are seeing red light reflect off of a surface. This means that any other color light that hits that object is absorbed into the surface. The exception to this is when you see red light, in that case you are seeing light that does not contain any other color of light.


If an object is blue what color of light is being absorbed by the object?

The object appears blue because it is absorbing colors in the red and yellow range of the spectrum and reflecting blue light.
