White light is visible when all colors of light are combined. This can be demonstrated through experiments like passing white light through a prism, which separates it into the visible spectrum of colors. Additionally, when white light is shone on a white surface, it reflects all colors equally, appearing as white.

What color is obtained when the primary colors of light are mixed and why?

You would get white, because it is like the light beams are going through a crystal. The idea encapsulated here is that white light, when sent through a prism, is broken up into its constituent colors. When you reverse the process and add together the light that is broken up by a prism, the result is white light. ___________________________________________ When the primary colors of light are mixed, the outcome is white light. I don't know exactly why this happens, but I'm guessing this: You know how white light is really composed of all the colors of the rainbow? When you mix all the primary colors of the rainbow together, you get white light.
