A red dress appears red when white light shines on it because the dress absorbs all colors of light except for red, which it reflects back to our eyes. This reflection of red light is what we perceive as the color red.
Emulsions typically appear white or opaque when light shines through them. This is due to the scattering of light by the dispersed particles in the emulsion, which causes the light to be reflected in multiple directions.
When red light shines on a red object, the object will reflect the red light and appear red. If white light shines on a red object, the object will absorb all colors except red, which it will reflect, making it appear red as well.
When white light passes through a blue filter, the filter absorbs most of the colors in the white light spectrum and only allows blue light to pass through. As a result, the white light will appear blue after passing through the filter.
When white light shines on an opaque violet object, the object absorbs most of the colors in the white light spectrum except violet. The violet light is reflected off the object, making it appear violet to our eyes.
A "white surface" is one that reflects all colors of light. That's why it looks white when a white light shines on it, and that's why you call it "white". If only red light shines on it, then it looks red.
Emulsions typically appear white or opaque when light shines through them. This is due to the scattering of light by the dispersed particles in the emulsion, which causes the light to be reflected in multiple directions.
When white light shines on the CD, the light is separated into seven colours, so different colours appear on the CD.
When red light shines on a red object, the object will reflect the red light and appear red. If white light shines on a red object, the object will absorb all colors except red, which it will reflect, making it appear red as well.
When white light passes through a blue filter, the filter absorbs most of the colors in the white light spectrum and only allows blue light to pass through. As a result, the white light will appear blue after passing through the filter.
Well because the moon is grey but the suns light shines on it from a distance so that's why its white
green,red
When white light shines on an opaque violet object, the object absorbs most of the colors in the white light spectrum except violet. The violet light is reflected off the object, making it appear violet to our eyes.
A "white surface" is one that reflects all colors of light. That's why it looks white when a white light shines on it, and that's why you call it "white". If only red light shines on it, then it looks red.
When white light shines onto a violet object, the violet part of white light reflects off of the object, causing you to see violet. White light it ROYGBIV, which is the colours of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet). So white light IS the combination of ALL of these colours.
The light from the sun, which is made up of equal parts of red, green and blue (even though it may not look it), will be reflected off of the white surface, staying white as the white surface reflects equal parts of red, green and blue.
because all the colours are reflected so the dress appears white.
The red shirt reflects red light and absorbs all other colors present in white light. This is why we perceive the shirt as red when white light shines on it.
