No, green can reflect other colors, although I am not sure exactly which. I think green can reflect blue and yellow.

What does green look like in yellow lights?

A green object is called "green" because that's the only color of light that it reflects to our eyes, while it absorbs any other light. If there's no green light shining on it, then there's nothing for it to reflect, and we would describe it as a "black" object under those conditions.


What colour would a red object seem to look like if you only shined green light on it?

The object would be black, because red cannot reflect green light so no colour is reflected of the object.


What colour will a green object be if only blue light was shone on it?

Black, because the blue light would be absorbed into the object's pigment and as there is no green light to reflect, the object would appear black.


Why does a green object look black in red light?

For exactly the reason that you call it a "a green object". You describe it that way because most of the time, when it's being illuminated by light of all colors, the only color that it does NOT absorb, and that remains to bounce off of the object and be seen by your eye, is the green. When there is no green light striking the object, it can't reflect any light to your eye, and it appears black.


What color would a red object appear to be if you shone only green light on it?

The red object would appear black because it would not reflect any of the green light shining on it. Green light is the complementary color of red, meaning the object would absorb all the green light and not reflect any color back to our eyes.


If object is white in sunlight what color will it be in green light?

If an object is white in sunlight it will be green in green light. A white object reflects all wavelengths (colors) of light that shine on it. If only green light shines on it, that color will be reflected and the object will look green.


What colour will a Blue object appear if only Red light is shone on it?

it would be black as there would be no color to reflect off of it e.g a green door in any color lighted room would make it look black except if it was in a white or green lighted room then it would look green :D


A red light and a green light source shine on a white screen a blue object is placed in front of the screen what color will it be?

black since the object is blue, it reflects only blue light thus, shining red and green lights on it will only cause the object to absorb the two colors and it will result to the appearance of the object as black


What colour will a Green object appear if only Blue light is shone on it?

The green object will appear black because it will not reflect any of the blue light shone on it. Green objects primarily absorb blue light, so without any green or red light present, the object will appear dark.


What would an objects colour be if it was green but you shone red light on to it?

A green object absorbs all light except green which is reflected by the pigment. White light is made up of all colors and all except green are absorbed; only green is reflected. If a red light is the only one illuminating a green shirt there is no green to reflect so the shirt will look black.

What colour would a cyan object be when light is shined on it?

When light is shined on a cyan object, it will appear cyan as long as the light source contains both blue and green wavelengths, which are the colors that make up cyan. If the light is white, the cyan object will reflect the blue and green light and thus still appear cyan. However, if the light is only red, the cyan object will appear black because it cannot reflect that color.
