"White" light is the integration of all wavelengths of light, such as black body radiation. It's called white because it has all the colors in the optical spectrum, but black bodies also radiate in the unltra violet & infrared wavelengths too.

White light is really a white.White means no color.If your eyes are perceiving light which has got no color means eyes are perceiving white light. Black color splits into Cyan , Magenta and Yellow color and with the help of these three colors you get all the colors.Try to mix all these three colors in different proportions and combination and check it your own.Different concentration of color will give different shades.

For example .....When Magenta is mixed with Cyan it gives Blue color and when mixed with Yellow it gives Red.When Cyan is mixed with Yellow it gives Green and you get Orange when you mix Red with Yellow.... so on so forth.

You just observe a Black line through a prism you will find that the Black line has split into Cyan , Magenta and Yellow.These three colors are the primary colors and these three colors are now not splitting when seen through prism.If you see the white light surrounded by any of these three primary colors... you will find that this white light is also not splitting when seen through prism.So I consider the White also a primary one.This white light may be bright or it may be dull.

AnswerBlack and white are not really colors, in the sense of having a specific hue. Black is the absense of all light, while white is the presence of every color of light. A white lightbulb is really emitting tons of red, yellow, green, blue, and purple light all at the same time.

Is white really a colour?

White is considered a color in the context of light, as it is a mixture of all visible wavelengths of light. However, in the context of pigments or materials that reflect light, white is the absence of color because it reflects all wavelengths of light without absorbing any specific color.
