When you mix red, blue, and green light you get white light. When you mix red, blue, and green paint you get black paint. Explain why you think this happens.

Well if you think about brown as it occurs naturally like a tree trunk it’s only reflecting the wavelengths that make us see brown and the reason we see white when mixing light it has to do with evolution and how we are able to see in daylight so things such as flashlights are representing all the colors the sun has when it is daytime hopefully that helped
