Answer #1

The color appears because the substance absorbs the various spectrums of color from the seven colors (V, I, B, G, Y, O, R) white light and reflects the other colors together which it has not absorbed. The various colors which are reflected back combine together to give a specific color.

For both dark blue and light blue colors, the wavelength of the radiations absorbed and reflected back are the same. The only difference will be the intensity or volume of radiations reflected back. The more the volume of radiations that will be reflected back, darker will be the colr and vise versa.
