The primary colours of light can be added to make secondary colours, or all three can be combined to produce white light Each secondary colour of light is produced by mixing two primary colours.

Although we see seven colours when white light disperses through prisms, only three of them are primary, i.e. are not produced by combinations of other colours. These primary colours are red, green and blue. Indeed, we hardly see all seven colours during dispersion because the three primary colours are more visible than the others. On the other han...

1. Two lights are arranged above a white sheet of paper. When the lights are turned on they illuminate the entire sheet of paper (as seen in the diagram below). Each light bulb emits a primary color of light - red (R), green (G), and blue (B). Depending on which primary color of light is used, the paper will appear a different color.
Dec 7, 2022 · Shown is a colour diagram illustrating how primary colours of light mix to create secondary colours. Three different coloured circles are arranged in a triangle shape on a black background. They overlap in the centre of the illustration. Each circle is labelled, as is each overlapping section. Starting on the top left, the first circle is blue.
On one end of the spectrum is red light, with the longest wavelength. Blue or violet light has the shortest wavelength. White light is a combination of all colors in the color spectrum. It has all the colors of the rainbow. Combining primary colors of light like red, blue, and green creates secondary colors: yellow, cyan, and magenta.
Color addition refers to the ability to use light to create secondary colors from primary colors. Mixing various intensities of red, green, and blue light allows us to create any other color of light. Color addition is related to light we see via transmission. When two primary colors are transmitted together, we see a secondary color.

Overlapping primary light sources stimulate the cones of both of the colours that overlap - that is why we then see the secondary colours of light at the overlap - two sets are stimulated - secondary. Where there is no overlap we see a primary colour - one set. of cones stimulated... and where all three overlap we see white light because all of ...
