Bugün öğrendim ki: Mor renk spektral olmayan bir renktir. Yani her zaman iki farklı elektromanyetik radyasyon dalga boyunun bir kombinasyonudur.
Our ability to perceive color is nothing short of a technical miracle — biologically speaking. But there is one color we can see that isn't quite like the rest. This color, purple, is known as a non-spectral color. Unlike all its peers it doesn't correspond to a single type of electromagnetic radiation, and must always be born out of a mix of two others.

Most of you here probably know that our [perception of color](https://www.zmescience.com/science/physics/what-gives-colour/) comes down to physics. Light is a type of radiation that our eyes can perceive, and it spans a certain range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Individual colors are like building blocks in white light: they are subdivisions of the visible spectrum. For us to perceive an object as being of a certain color, it needs to absorb some of the subdivisions in the light that falls on it (or all of them, for black). The parts it reflects (doesn't absorb) are what gives it its color. But not so for purple, because it is a…
