All of the rainbow colours exept its own
The object appears blue because it is absorbing colors in the red and yellow range of the spectrum and reflecting blue light.
Colors that complement red, such as yellow and orange, will pass through a red filter. Other colors, such as blue and green, will be absorbed by the red filter and not pass through.
White light contains all colors of the visible spectrum: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. When white light is reflected off an object, the colors that are not absorbed by the object are reflected back to our eyes, giving the object its perceived color.
The yellow object absorbs most of the light and reflects yellow light. White light is a combination of different colors, and the yellow object absorbs all colors except yellow, which is what we see.

Black is absorbed! White is reflected. :)

It's called "A Blue Object" because when light of many colors falls on it, it reflects the blue light toward your eyes and absorbs all the other colors, including yellow. So if yellow light is the only light falling on it, the light is all absorbed, none is reflected to your eyes, and the object appears black.
Colours are made by reflected lights. When light hits an object, the color you see is being reflected, the ones you don't are being absorbed. Example: you have a blue object, blue is being reflected while the other colours are absorbed. With a colour like green, blue and yellow are reflected as the others are absorbed.

An object appears a certain color to you because it reflects that color of light and absorbs other colors of light. For example, a white object appears white because it reflects all colors of visible light (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet). A black object appears black because it absorbs all of these colors--and as a result, none of those colors are reflected back to your eyes. Under white light, the object appears yellow-green because it reflects both yellow and green light and absorbs all other colors. (Remember, white light has all colors of visible light in it). If only green light is present, there's only green light for it to reflect--so it will appear green. If you shined yellow light on it only, it would be yellow. If you shined yellow and green light, it would appear yellow-green again. It you shined red and blue light on it, it would appear black, because it absorbs both of those colors.
When white light passes through a yellow filter, only yellow light is transmitted, while all other colors are absorbed. This means that when you look at the light passing through the yellow filter, you will see only the color yellow.
