Q.	A ray of white light strikes the surface of an object. If all the colours are reflected, the surface would appear
A.	Black
B.	White
C.	Grey
D.	Opaque
Answer» B. White
Explanation: Objects do not have any colour of their own. When light hits a surface, some of it is absorbed and some of it is reflected. The light that is reflected is the colour of the object in that light. Objects appear white when they reflect all the wavelengths; they appear black when they absorb all visible wavelengths.
