Light & Color
![Page 2: Light & Color. Light: Light that can be sensed by our eyes is Visible Light Visible light consists of a continuous range of wavelengths or frequencies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d985503460f94a82bb8/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Light:
Light that can be sensed by our eyes is Visible Light
Visible light consists of a continuous range of wavelengths or frequencies
Specific wavelengths correspond to a specific color based upon how we perceive light of that wavelength

Dispersion & Recomposition:
If a prism is placed in a beam of white light:

Dispersion occurs resulting in the ‘separation’ of light into a spectrum of colors
A type of refraction Refractive index varies with the wavelength
or color of light Dispersion due to different refractive angles
How rainbows occur

Recomposition recombines the colors of the spectrum
![Page 6: Light & Color. Light: Light that can be sensed by our eyes is Visible Light Visible light consists of a continuous range of wavelengths or frequencies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d985503460f94a82bb8/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
When light strikes an object, the specific wavelengths can be absorbed or reflected
The wavelengths that are reflected by an object, cause the perceived color of the object
Ex.ROYGBIV
Capable of absorbing ROYBIV
G ROYBIV all absorbed by object
G reflected
Therefore object “appears” green
![Page 7: Light & Color. Light: Light that can be sensed by our eyes is Visible Light Visible light consists of a continuous range of wavelengths or frequencies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d985503460f94a82bb8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
If all absorbed, then object appears black
If all reflected, then object appears white

What color will the objects appear to be?

Viewing objects:
Objects may be viewed through filters &/or under different light
Causing the color of objects to be perceived differently
Recall white light is ROYGBIV
![Page 10: Light & Color. Light: Light that can be sensed by our eyes is Visible Light Visible light consists of a continuous range of wavelengths or frequencies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d985503460f94a82bb8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Filters will only allow specific colors of light (& the color on either side in the spectrum) to pass

Recall colors are perceived b/c of the color of light reflected
Viewing objects under different color light will affect the perceived color since some colors may or may not be present to be reflected!!!

Standing on a stage, a singer is illuminated by three lights, each emitting a different color.
When the first light is used, he appears to be wearing black shoes, red pants & a red shirtWhen the second light is used, he appears to be wearing blue shoes, black pants & a blue shirt
When the third light is used, he appears to be wearing black shoes, black pants & a green shirt
What color are the singer’s shoes, pants & shirt?

Color Addition:
White light is ROYGBIV but… White light can also be produced by
adding colors (or frequencies) Any three colors of light which produce
white light when combined are primary colors of light
RED, GREEN & BLUE
![Page 21: Light & Color. Light: Light that can be sensed by our eyes is Visible Light Visible light consists of a continuous range of wavelengths or frequencies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d985503460f94a82bb8/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
By adding primary colors of light, other colors can be produced
Ex.
TVs, computers, stage lights
Red Green
Blue
Yellow
CyanMagenta
White

Yellow Magenta Cyan

Any two colors of light which when mixed together in equal intensities produce white are complementary colors of eachother
Ex. Red & Cyan Blue & Yellow Green & Magenta
![Page 24: Light & Color. Light: Light that can be sensed by our eyes is Visible Light Visible light consists of a continuous range of wavelengths or frequencies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d985503460f94a82bb8/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
If magenta light and yellow light are added together, will white light be produced?
Magenta = Red & Blue
Yellow = Red & Green
Light will appear “light pink”

Color Subtraction:
Process of “removing” color Increasing absorption of colors and
decreasing reflection of colors Ex.
Paint pigments, printer ink
Pigment capable of absorbing blue light
R G B R G Blue absorbed
Red & Green Reflected
Therefore object “appears” yellow

Pigment capable of absorbing green light
R G B
R BGreen absorbed
Red & Blue Reflected
Therefore object “appears” magenta
What color would an object capable of absorbing blue light appear?

Primary colors (pigments) of paint are cyan, magenta & yellow
Each primary color of paint absorbs one primary color of light
