When light hits a flower, the pigments in the flower's petals absorb the light energy. This energy is then used in the process of photosynthesis to produce sugars that the plant uses as a source of energy to grow and bloom. The color of the flower is determined by the specific pigments present in its petals and how they interact with light.

What happens to the colors of light when white light hits an object?
When white light hits an object, the object absorbs certain colors of light and reflects others. The colors that are reflected off the object are what we perceive as the color of the object.
What happens if the ray of light hits the mirror?
When a ray of light hits a mirror, it is reflected back at an equal angle from the normal (a line perpendicular to the surface of the mirror). This is known as the law of reflection.
What happens to the color black when light hits it?
When light hits a black object, it is absorbed by the object's surface molecules rather than being reflected. This absorption of light energy causes the object to appear black to our eyes.
What happens to a beam of light as it hits the glass prism?
When light hits a glass prism, the speed and direction of the light changes due to refraction. This causes the light to bend as it enters and exits the prism, leading to the phenomenon of dispersion where the different colors of light separate into a spectrum.
What happens to light when it hits clear glass?
When light hits clear glass, some of it is transmitted through the glass, some is reflected off the surface, and a small amount is absorbed by the glass. The amount of light that is transmitted or reflected depends on the angle of incidence and the refractive index of the glass.
What happens to light when it hits?
it goes nowhere
What happens when light hits a rough surface?
when light hits a rough surface it scattters.
What happens when a light hits a prism and why does it happen?
The light sctters into a spectrum.
What happens to the photo conductive layer when light hits it?
It shines by the light.
What type of reflection happens when a straight ray of light hits smooth mirrors?
When a straight light ray hits a smooth mirror, the regular reflection happens.
What happens to darkness when light hits it?
it goes nowhere
What happens when a ray of light hits something?
it reflects
Why does a red flower look red in white light?
A red flower looks red because it absorbs all colors of light in the visible spectrum except red, which it reflects. When white light, which contains all colors, hits the flower, the red part of the light spectrum is reflected off the flower and that is what we see as the color red.
What happens to light when it hits a translucent objects?
this is when only some light can go though
What happens to light when it hits a different medium?
The light reflects or refracts on hitting the medium.
What happens to light when it strikes a lens?
light bends when it hits the lens....this is called refraction
What happens to the light when it hits?
it absorbs the radiation from it making it harmless
