Is red a light color?

No I would not generally say red is a light colour, but adding white to make pink or mixing it with yellow and white to make a light orange would work. A light colour is one with white in it, so unless the red is mixed with white it wouldn't be a light colour. Red is generally considered to be a very dramatic colour, so no, it is not a light colour unless mixed in one of the ways above. I hope this helped!


How can you show that white light is not just one colour?

White light can be separated into its component colors using a prism or diffraction grating, a process called dispersion. When white light passes through these tools, it is refracted at different angles corresponding to its different wavelengths, resulting in a spectrum of colors such as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. This proves that white light is composed of a range of colors.

What colour is a white object under yellow light?

Why do you call it a "white object" ? Could it be because it looks white under white light ... light composed of every color ? Well then, the object must reflect every color. So it appears to be the color of whatever light you illuminate it with. Yellow under yellow light, etc.


How does a prism demonstrate what white light is composed of?

A prism demonstrates what white light is composed of by refracting (bending) the different colors of light at slightly different angles, causing them to separate and become visible as a spectrum. This separation showcases that white light is actually a combination of various colors with different wavelengths.

How many colours to make white colour?

White is not a colour ... it is the absence of all color. White is a mixture of all coloured light, all colours are a reflection of light. The first thing to disappear when the light goes down is colour. In total darkness there is no light to reflect.


Is there such thing as dark white?

The colour 'white' when all of the light is bounced of the surface on which the colour is mounted. If the colour is darkened then there will be some light being absorbed into the surface. This means that the colour is no longer 'white' more of a grey or possibly black. :)
