When you look at a white light bulb through red sunglasses, why does the light look red to your eyes? What happened to all the other colors? Explain.

it’s because the red tint on the glasses make every other light object red

If you look at a white light bulb with red tinted sunglasses the lightbulb looks red because of the tint on the sunglasses the other colors are still there but you’re looking through red glasses so everything shows more red than any color. (If that makes sense)
