a green object it will reflect a green light and will absorb all other colours.
The green paper will absorb most of the red light and reflect or transmit very little of it. This is because the green pigment in the paper absorbs red light and reflects green light. Therefore, the red light will not be well reflected from the green paper, making it appear dark or black.
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.
When a green light is shone onto cyan paper, the paper will absorb some of the green light and reflect the rest. Since cyan is a combination of green and blue, the green light will combine with the reflected blue light from the paper, making it appear brighter and more vibrant.
If you put a piece of white paper under a green light all that will happen is the paper will turn green. The only time this will vary is if you have special ink that will show up under certain colored light.
White light is made up of all the colors. If a paper is white, it is reflecting all the colors of light. We know that the color of an object is determined by the color(s) of light it reflects. If an object is green, for example, it reflects green light and absorbs all other colors.

The red pigment in the paper will absorb all colors except red, which will be reflected. When yellow light shines on the paper, which contains red pigment, the red pigment will absorb the other colors in the yellow light spectrum but reflect the red light. So, the paper will appear red under yellow light.
White light is made up of all the colors. If a paper is white, it is reflecting all the colors of light. We know that the color of an object is determined by the color(s) of light it reflects. If an object is green, for example, it reflects green light and absorbs all other colors.
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).
The surface will look Red, because white reflects all colours and absorb none. If you hit a red light on, say, green then that would look black because green will absorb all the red but if it was a green light then it would look green. Every colour, except white, absorbs colours except itselves.
When red and green lights are shone onto a white piece of paper, the paper appears yellow. This is because red and green light mix to create yellow light when they are combined. The paper reflects the yellow light back to our eyes, making it appear yellow.
The paper appears black. -- The paper is called "green" because it absorbs any light that isn't green, and reflects only green light to the observer. -- The filter is called "red" because it absorbs any light that isn't red, and transmits only red light through to the other side. -- There's no red light shining from the paper into the filter, so there's no light leaving the filter. The paper appears black.
