What happened when you used a colored filter and a colored lightbulb?

Answer:

A filter is a transparent material that absorbs some colors and allows others to pass through. ... A yellow color filter will let through only yellow and absorb all other colors. So when blue light is allowed through a blue filter onto a blue object, the object will still reflect blue and therefore appear blue.

Answer:

The person in the simulation could see the colored light only if it passed through a filter of the same color. This filtering of color occurred because the filter absorbs the other colors. The filter lets light that’s the same color as the filter pass through, allowing the person to see that color.

Explanation: I hope this helped you alot :)
