Question

question 1 - 7
which of these statements is a correct explanation of how objects absorb and reflect colors of light?

  • black objects absorb almost all wavelengths of light.
  • white objects both absorb and reflect almost all wavelengths of light.
  • red objects absorb red - light and reflect all other wavelengths of light.
  • blue objects absorb most of the wavelengths of light and reflect only blue light.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Black objects absorb most wavelengths of light. White objects reflect almost all wavelengths of light. Red objects absorb most wavelengths except red which they reflect. Blue objects absorb most and reflect blue light. The correct statement is that red objects absorb red - light and reflect all other wavelengths of light is incorrect as red objects reflect red light. The correct principle is that red objects absorb most non - red wavelengths and reflect red light. But among the given options, the closest correct concept is that red objects absorb non - red light and reflect red light.

Answer:

Red objects absorb non - red light and reflect red light (assuming this is the closest correct option among the ones presented in the original list which is not fully clear from the provided image but based on the general principles of light absorption and reflection).
