What do you get if shine a green light on a red cap?

If you shine a green light on a red cap, the cap will likely appear dark or black because red objects absorb green light and do not reflect it back to our eyes. This is due to the color mixing phenomenon where red and green cancel each other out.


Why a green cap looks black in blue light?

The cap is called 'green' because it absorbs all other colors of light, leaving only the green light to bounce from it to your eyes. If no green light shines on it, then there's no light to bounce from it to your eyes, and it appears black. If you only shine blue light on it, then there's no green light shining on it.
