They say that substances have color because when light waves of all colors hit the substance, the atoms do absorb all the colors, except those that is its color.
Red substance is red because it absorbs all the color waves, but reflects the red waves.
But all the color waves the red substance absorbs, what happens to them? The atoms of the substance re-emit these waves right away at the same frequency? Or they emit at other frequency?
