The object would be black, because red cannot reflect green light so no colour is reflected of the object.

If a red light is shone on a green object what would the colour be?

The red light would be absorbed by the green object and the object would appear dark. The green object reflects green light and absorbs other colors.


What happens when a blue light is shined onto a different colour?

When a blue light is shined onto a different color, the object will absorb some of the blue light and reflect the rest. The color that we perceive is the result of the wavelengths of light that are reflected off the object. Different colors absorb and reflect light in unique ways, leading to the variety of colors we see around us.


What color would a green object be if you shined an orange light on it?

A "green" object is called "green" because that's the only color of light it reflects, and it absorbs any other color. If orange light is shining on it, then there's no light for it to reflect, and it looks black to you.


What color does a green and orange object reflect?

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.


What colour is a red object in green light?

A red object appears dark and almost black in green light because red objects absorb green light and do not reflect any light back to our eyes.

What colour would a cyan object be when light is shined on it?

When light is shined on a cyan object, it will appear cyan as long as the light source contains both blue and green wavelengths, which are the colors that make up cyan. If the light is white, the cyan object will reflect the blue and green light and thus still appear cyan. However, if the light is only red, the cyan object will appear black because it cannot reflect that color.


What colour will blue be in a green light?

Blue what ? ! ? Do you mean an object that appears blue in white light ? Such an object appears black in green light.

What colour does a green light make a red object?

A green light makes a red object appear black, because red objects absorb green light and do not reflect any visible light back.


What colour will a green object appear if only red light was shone on it?

BLACK


What colour will a green object be if only blue light was shone on it?

Black, because the blue light would be absorbed into the object's pigment and as there is no green light to reflect, the object would appear black.


What causes an object to appear green?

An object appears green when it reflects green light and absorbs other colors from the visible light spectrum. This is due to the object's molecular structure, which determines how it interacts with light. When green light is reflected off an object, it is detected by our eyes as the color green.
