- Red + Purple = Red Purple, Green + Purple = Violate.

Sun light:
This sun light is a wave of energy which is come to the earth by magnetic wave. The wave length is vast definition. The length of the light is so much different and some of the length is beyond of an eye can see. Basically human eye can see 350 nanometer to 700 nanometer we called it light.
The colors of the visible light spectrum
| color | wavelength interval | frequency interval |
|---|---|---|
| red | ~ 700–635 nm | ~ 430–480 THz |
| orange | ~ 635–590 nm | ~ 480–510 THz |
| yellow | ~ 590–560 nm | ~ 510–540 THz |
| green | ~ 560–520 nm | ~ 540–580 THz |
| cyan | ~ 520–490 nm | ~ 580–610 THz |
| blue | ~ 490–450 nm | ~ 610–670 THz |
| violet | ~ 450–400 nm | ~ 670–750 THz |
