Red tape can be used to repair a broken taillight on a car. In one or two sentences, explain how different colors of light are transmitted, reflected, and absorbed by this kind of tape

Red tape reflects red light, absorbs other colors of light, and transmits no light.

Different colors of light are transmitted through red tape because red wavelengths are allowed to pass through the material, while other colors are absorbed or reflected. When the red tape is used to repair a broken taillight, it allows red light to pass through, making it suitable for this purpose.

Different colors of light are transmitted, reflected, and absorbed by red tape based on the principle of selective absorption. When white light passes through the tape, all other colors are absorbed, except for red, which is transmitted and reflected, making the tape appear red.
