The red shirt reflects red light and absorbs all other colors present in white light. This is why we perceive the shirt as red when white light shines on it.
Colored light can affect the appearance of objects by changing how the colors of the objects are perceived. When white light shines on an object, the object absorbs some colors and reflects others, which are what we see. If colored light shines on the object, it can alter the colors that are reflected and thus change how the object appears to the viewer.
Blue light is reflected, other colors are absorbed.
Colors are affected by light energy through a process called absorption. When light shines on an object, its surface absorbs certain wavelengths of light while reflecting others. The wavelengths that are reflected determine the color we see. Different colors are a result of different wavelengths of light being reflected off an object.
No, the color of an object is the color of light that it reflects, not the color it absorbs. When light shines on an object, the object absorbs some colors and reflects others. The reflected colors are what we see.
The object absorbs most colors in the white light spectrum except for red, which is reflected. This reflected red light is what we perceive with our eyes as the object's color.

White light contains all the wavelengths of the visible spectrum at equal intensity. The different colors of light, except violet, are absorbed when white light shines on an opaque violet object. The violet color is reflected.
A rainbow forms when sunlight shines on water droplets in the atmosphere, causing the sunlight to be refracted, reflected, and dispersed. This process separates the sunlight into its different colors, creating the familiar multicolored arc in the sky.

When white light shines on an opaque violet object, the object absorbs most of the colors in the white light spectrum except violet. The violet light is reflected off the object, making it appear violet to our eyes.
Color is determined by the way objects interact with light. When light shines on an object, it absorbs some colors and reflects others. The colors that are reflected are what we see. Different materials absorb and reflect light in different ways, creating the variety of colors we perceive.
A rainbow is formed when sunlight is refracted, or bent, and reflected inside raindrops. The sunlight is then dispersed into its spectrum of colors, creating the familiar arc of colors we see in the sky after a rain shower.
