Opaque objects imparted with pigments selectively absorb light and reect whatever light colors are not absorbed. Filters are transparent materials which selectively absorb (or block) one or more primary colors of light and allow the remaining colors of light to pass through (or be transmitted). The color of the filter describes which color of light is transmitted by the filter. The following diagrams depict various primary colors of light (R for red, B for blue, and G for green) incident upon a colored filter [C for cyan, M for magenta, and Y for yellow). Determine which primary colors of light will pass through the lters. RB RB Light was 36 6 Light Light Light 8 -car
