The red paper absorbs all of the other colors in the spectrum and reflects red so that is the color it appears to be.

If the tissue paper is pink for instance,
the light will go through the tissue paper but because of the colour of the tissue paper, the light underneath will turn light pink,
(this happens with all colours of tissue paper)

∙ 13y agoWhen light hits material it can bounce (reflect), absorb, or go through it. Many times the light will do all 3 to some degree. An example of this would be light going through tissue paper. Some of it bounces off, some is absorbed and some travels through.
As the light travels in waves, some of the waves go through the tiny spaces in between the fibers of the paper.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on what kind of light. If a laser hits it, it will burn straight through it. If it is just a normal room light, you will be able to see it, as the light reflects off the tissue paper into your eye, enabling you to see it, and if it is sunlight through a magnifying glass, it will ignite. If it is just out in the sun for a few minutes-as far as i am aware-nothing happens except you being able too see it.

What happens when light strikes paper for wrapping gifts?
it go thow it
What happens as white light hits black ink on a piece of white paper?
The light is absorbed by the black ink and reflected by the white paper surrounding the ink. That is why you can see the ink clearly.
What happens to light when shone on a black paper?
Anything perfectly black appears black because it absorbs all the colors of the visible spectrum instead of reflecting them like white paper, so the light energy is absorbed and transfered into heat energy (the paper warms up very slightly).
Does black paper absorb wave lengths of light?
No black paper is not translucent ts opaque
How lights behave when it strikes in smooth and rough surface?
When light strikes a smooth surface (like a mirror), it is reflected. When it hits a rough surface (like a sheet of paper) it is diffused, meaning the rays of light are scattered.

What happens to light that strikes clear plastic aluminum foil and tissue paper?
Look in your science textbook, or you should get some tutoring at yourhomework.com

What happens to the light energy when you shine light on a black piece of papper and no light is refleceted?
The energy is absorbed by the paper. Technically, it heats the paper. But it would have to be quite a bright light before you'd notice the increase in temperature.

Does photosynthesis happen under black filter paper?
Probably NOT!!! photosynthesis requires U.V. Light, and black paper will block UV light.
How does paper selection affect color?
Ink doesn't create its color the way paint does. Paint is opaque. Light hits the surface of the paint film, the wavelengths of light that don't correspond to the color your thing is are absorbed. Ink that isn't black is transparent. Really it is. Light passes through it and strikes the paper surface. The paper absorbs certain wavelengths of light. Then the light passes back through the ink film where the wavelengths not needed for the color of ink are absorbed. A cream-color paper will absorb different wavelengths than a blue-white paper.
When light shines on a yellow paper what happens to the whitelight?
When light shines on a yellow paper it passes through the paper and becomes yellow as the contrast of the paper is yellow hence the yellow color of the paper absorbs the light given and converts it into a yellow light.
Why are your copies light and smudged with a black line on the right side of the paper?
This happens alot to me and the line on the side of the paper sometimes when the lid is not closed all the way. The smudging happens is in two different ways. 1: your ink cartridges ar out of line.2: the paper is moved while coping.
Why does white paper glow under a black light?
Phosphorescent coating on the surface of the paper.
