Why does black absorb more light than other colors?

    Landlord, your question is reversed. Whether it is black or any color, in fact, the color of a substance is produced because of the reflection efficiency of a certain light!! A substance that absorbs most of the color, but does not absorb red, is reflected back, and we see red in such a substance!!

    In the same way, black, because it has the strongest ability to absorb light, it becomes black... And not to say why black absorbs light strongly,。。 It is because of the strong light absorption of a certain substance, which causes us to see, there is no reflection back, and our eyes receive black...

    The formation of this color is caused by the strong light absorption. It's hard to say why the light absorption is strong,,, then you have to ask why the safflower is red and not white. Then we are, safflower does not absorb the wavelength of red, in fact, the wavelength does, so that it is red when you see it!!

    Similarly, why black flowers are black, that's also true,,, of course, there are not many black flowers in nature, just because they absorb too much sunlight, which will make the flowers wither, so it is difficult to see black flowers in general.

    You're wrong, it's not that it's strong because it's black, it's that some of the objects that absorb light so strongly that no visible light can reflect it, and when we see these objects, we say it's black.

    The reason why the object we see is black is, physically, because it absorbs all the color light. Objects that resemble white are because they reflect all the colors of light, which are made up of red, green, and blue. Light carries energy, which is why black items absorb more light and have more heat.

    I don't know if you know such a truth: blue glass absorbs blue light, and purple glass absorbs purple light, just like the windshield on the car has blue or purple, which can effectively block strong light and ultraviolet rays, but at the same time, no other light is brought in, so that we can see things clearly. Isn't it the same with sunglasses?

    In short, the same colors absorb each other. Then this is simple, black is the addition of all colors to produce black, so what do you say he does not absorb light?

    Other colors reflect the same light, and black absorbs all of it. In the same case, black absorbs light strongly.

    Because black objects can absorb the heat brought by all color light, and do not reflect light, they do not dissipate heat outward.

    Because it absorbs all the color light waves, it appears black.

    Then why is it black when you can't see it, why is it not colorless, transparent, red, yellow and blue......No, why can't you see it's black?

    It's like a black hole, I can understand that it absorbs light, and the light can't be reflected back, so he can't see that place, but why can't we see it, it must be black, but it can't be any other color.

    Because it does not reflect any color of light.

    Absorbs all light and does not reflect any light.

    Black can absorb all the light because black is made up of other colors, and black is a universal color, but black is easy to dazzle and cause damage to the eyes, we try not to use black light to irradiate the eyes in ordinary life, and one thing to note is that we stay in a dark place for a long time, and suddenly there is light, and we need to close our eyes to buffer.

    The ability of black objects to absorb light is relatively strong, and it is not a common sense mistake that black absorbs all light, absolute black bodies do not exist, and there is a difference between black bodies and black objects, the first one is a bit of a concept that is indistinguishable.

    The light we usually talk about is visible light, with a wavelength between 300 and 800 nanometers. Black objects have a strong ability to absorb light in what we usually call red, orange, yellow, green, and other colors, resulting in very little of what we can see and appear black, and the ability to absorb light in other wavelengths is too clear.

    Light is a physical term whose essence is a stream of photons in a specific frequency band. A light source emits light because the electrons in the light source gain extra energy. If the energy is not enough to make it jump to a more outer orbit, the electrons undergo an accelerated motion and release the energy in the form of a wave.

    If the transition is followed by just enough to fill the vacancy in the orbit and from the excited state to the stable state, the electron stops transitioning. Otherwise, the electrons jump back to their previous orbits again and release energy in the form of waves.

    Yes, because black is particularly light-absorbing, and it is also very heat-absorbing, and if you wear black clothes in summer, it will look very hot, because black will absorb light, so it looks very hot.

    From my own feelings, black can absorb light, when summer comes, when the sun shines on the head, we can feel the hot clothes when we wear black clothes, which is much higher than the temperature of white clothes under the same conditions.

    Yes, so we usually feel hot when we wear black.

    Black chaki is the color that absorbs light most easily and therefore makes people black. The absorption rate of ultraviolet rays in black is very high, about 90, so it can effectively prevent ultraviolet rays from irradiating to the sun, and the longer it is exposed to the sun, the more it will be easy to blacken.

    Because black will absorb the light source, and white will reflect the light source, so in the sun, wearing black clothes will be hotter than wearing white clothes, and there is no difference in the room. Therefore, it may be easier to absorb ultraviolet rays, which is why it is easier to absorb the heat of visible light. White objects reflect light of various wavelengths, and the ability to reflect ultraviolet rays is certainly better than that of black objects.

    Now, though, there's an interesting way to say it!

    Not long ago, a study by Harvard University in the United States showed that it is cooler to wear black than white on a hot summer day. Experts point out that heat in the human body can be dissipated outward through radiation, conduction, convection, and evaporation. It is true that black clothes absorb more heat than white clothes, but the heat absorbed can become the driving force for the formation of convection in the clothes (just like in the summer afternoon, the ground is heated and easy to form local convection or even thundershowers), and the air convection in the clothes can take away the sweat and part of the heat on the surface to dissipate, and the human body will naturally feel cool.

    Of course, black clothes should be made looser, so that the "convection" can be strengthened and the coolness of the clothes will be increased. For those who are interested in the above research results, you may wish to give it a try.

    Because it's a dark color, the dark color has a strong ability to absorb heat and a strong ability to dissipate heat, which is a physical property.

    Because black easily absorbs the spectrum.

Why do pupils dilate and shrink with the same light intensity? Pupil dilation occurs when the pupillary openeris major muscle on the iris is contracted or the pupillary sphincter is suppressed. The round hole in the center of the iris is called the pupil, and the pupil is affected by two muscles on the iris to regulate the amount of light entering the eye, one is the pupillary sphincter, which is innervated by the parasympathetic nerve and is responsible for narrowing the pupil; The other is the pupillary dilator, which is innervated by the sympathetic nerves and is responsible for dilating the pupil. >>>More

Black flowers strictly do not exist, there are no naturally formed pure black flowers, only dark purple that is too dark and close to black, such as the black mandala, which is a precious flower, is actually dark purple, and there are also black tulips, black roses, black lilies, black chrysanthemums, black peonies and so on.
