Explanation

When a white screen is illuminated by red and green light, the colors will combine to create yellow. The additive color model explains this phenomenon. In this model, colors are created by combining different wavelengths of light. Red and green light together create yellow light. Therefore, on the white screen, you would perceive a yellow color when illuminated by both red and green light.
