What does the color gold and silver mean in physics?

The visible light of electromagnetic radiation contains red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet.(from longest wave to shortest wave)

If you mix all wavelength of visible light together, it will be white.

But what’s the wavelength of gold and silver in visible light?

What does the color gold and silver mean in physics?
There are red light, yellow light, green light, blue light, white light and violet light.

Do they have gold light and silver light?

Combinations of different colors in different combinations give rise to different perceptions of colors in our visual system. Most of the colors we see do not correspond to any one wavelength in the spectrum.

If you mix all wavelengths of visible light together IN EQUAL INTENSITIES, it will be white. But with other mixtures it might be gray, or brown, or orange, or green-blue, or gold or silver, or…

And you can approximate a wide range of colors by simply mixing three sources of red, green and blue. That is the principle behind the color computer screen you’re looking at.
