∙ 8y agoAn object that absorbs all colors in the light spectrum will appear black, as it is not reflecting any light back to our eyes.
If an object absorbs all colors of light, it will appear black because it is not reflecting any light back to our eyes.
No, the color of an object is the color of light that it reflects, not the color it absorbs. When light shines on an object, the object absorbs some colors and reflects others. The reflected colors are what we see.
A red object absorbs most colors in the visible spectrum except for red. Red objects reflect red light wavelengths, giving them their characteristic color.
An object appears black when it absorbs all colors of light and reflects very little or no light. This lack of reflection results in the object absorbing most of the light that hits it, giving it a black appearance to our eyes.
An object appears red when white light is shone on it because the object selectively absorbs all other colors in the white light spectrum except for red. The red light is reflected off the object's surface, which our eyes perceive as the color red.

The color that we see is not the color of the object in question, but the color of the light it reflects. This means that a "green object" absorbs all colors of the visible spectrum except for green light, which it reflects back to our eyes. White light is the combination of the entire visible spectrum combined. Thus a "white object" reflects all colors of light. On the opposite side of this question, a "black object" absorbs all colors of light, because "black" is the absence of color.
It means the certain object absorbs all the colors on the Light Spectrum and only reflects the color blue.

"Black is not a color; a black object absorbs all the colors of the visible spectrum and reflects none of them. White is a color. White reflects all the colors of the visible light spectrum." -- http://www.colormatters.com/vis_bk_white.html#Anchor-The-35882

An object appears a certain color because it reflects specific wavelengths in the visible spectrum while absorbing others. For example, a blue object reflects blue wavelengths and absorbs other colors.
When light hits a green object, the object absorbs all the colors in the light spectrum except for green. Green is reflected off the object, which is why we perceive it as green. This reflection is what gives the object its color.
Red absorbs all colors of light except for red. When white light shines on a red object, the object absorbs all the colors except red, which it reflects to our eyes. This is why we perceive the object as 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.
