Each piece of clothing usually reflect only a few colours. Pure white light contains all of the colours, so an item of clothing can reflect all of the few colours it is capable of reflecting. If an item of clothing is viewed in magenta light (which is mainly blue and red) then that clothing may show that it is only able to reflect some shades of red and/or some shades of blue.

What color do green and magenta light make?

Green and magenta light combine to create white light.


What color results when green is subtracted from white light?

When green is subtracted from white light, the resulting color is magenta. This is because magenta is the complementary color of green when working with subtractive color mixing.


What happens when you mix magenta and green light?

When you mix magenta and green light together, the result will be white light. This is because magenta light contains red and blue components, and when combined with green light which consists of green and blue components, all three primary colors (red, green, and blue) are present in equal amounts to produce white light.


What coloured light makes white light when mixed with green light?

Magenta coloured light makes white light when mixed with green light


What colour will a white shirt appear in a green disco light?

A white shirt will appear green under a green disco light because objects reflect the light projected onto them. Since the shirt is white, it will reflect the green light predominantly, giving it a green appearance.


What colors in white light does a green t shirt absorb?

A green t-shirt absorbs all colors in white light except for green. Green is reflected off the shirt, which is why we perceive it as green.


When white light shines through a green glass bottle does the bottle appears magenta?

When white light shines through a green glass bottle, the bottle appears magenta because the glass absorbs most colors of light except for green, which it transmits. When green light mixes with the red and blue light that is not absorbed by the glass, it creates the perception of magenta.


What does yellow and magenta light make?

When yellow and magenta light are combined, they produce white light. This occurs because yellow light contains red and green wavelengths, while magenta light contains red and blue wavelengths. When these colors mix, the red wavelengths from both colors combine, along with the green from yellow and the blue from magenta, resulting in a balanced spectrum that appears white.


What color is white light minus green?

White light minus green light would appear as a magenta or pink color. This is because when green light is subtracted from white light, the remaining combination of red and blue light creates the magenta/pink hue.


Which colors in white light does a green t-shirt reflect?

A green t-shirt reflects green light while absorbing all other colors in white light. This selective reflection by the fabric is what gives the t-shirt its green color appearance to our eyes.


When white light shines through a green glass bottle the bottle appears magenta?

When white light shines through a green glass bottle, the bottle absorbs most green wavelengths, leaving red and blue light to transmit through. This combination of red and blue light creates the perception of magenta. Magenta is a secondary color that is formed by the combination of red and blue light.


What colour will my white shirt appear in green disco light?

In a green disco light, your white shirt will likely appear to have a greenish tint. This is because the white fabric will reflect and scatter the green light wavelengths, which can cause the shirt to take on a green hue. The perceived color of an object is determined by the wavelengths of light it reflects, so in this case, the green light will dominate the appearance of the shirt.
