What are the primary colors?

What are the three primary colors of light, that when mixed produce white light? & why?

  • Answer:

    A, red/ yellow/ blue. "In color theory, two colors are called complementary if, when mixed in the proper proportion, they produce a neutral color (grey, white, or black). In roughly-perceptual color models, the neutral colors (white, greys, and black) lie along a central axis. For example, in the HSV color space, complementary colors (as defined in HSV) lie opposite each other on any horizontal cross-section. Thus, in the CIE 1931 color space a color of a particular "dominant" wavelength can be mixed with a particular amount of the "complementary" wavelength to produce a neutral color (grey or white)". Black is produced by total lack of light, i.e. all colors are absent or only at very low intensity.
