The way any color of anything, including leaves, shows up, has to do with its physical makeup on how it reflects light. For example, a green leaf is unable to absorb green light, so it bounces that light off, and therefor it appears green.

What is the color of a mirror and how does it affect the reflection of light?

The color of a mirror is typically silver or gray. The mirror's color does not affect the reflection of light because mirrors reflect light by bouncing it off their smooth surface, regardless of their color.

Why does the color of a light affect a plants growth or does it?

Yes, the color of light does affect a plant's growth through a process called photosynthesis. Different colors of light correspond to different wavelengths, which plants use to absorb energy. Blue and red light are the most important for plant growth as they are absorbed most effectively for photosynthesis. Green light is not as readily absorbed by plants, which is why leaves appear green.


What is color of light where the thermometer is located?

Light does not have a specific color based on the thermometer's location. The color of light is determined by its wavelength, which is emitted by the light source. The thermometer's location does not affect the color of the light.


Which colours of light are least absorbed by the leaves?

Leaves absorb mostly red and blue light but reflect or transmit green light, which is why they appear green to our eyes. Therefore, green light is the color least absorbed by leaves.


Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of a light wave projected by the laser?

Colors are determined by the wavelengths but all wavelengths travel at the same speed. So no, colors do not affect the velocity of light.

How light affect color and how color affect light?

Color and light are the same thing A color is a spesific wavelength of light. All the colors together makes white light. A red ball reflect "only" the red wavelength of the light, thereby appearing red. If you shine on it with a blue light and blue light only, the ball will appear Black, simply because there is no Red light to reflect.
