What color would white light appear viewed through filter?

It depends on what kind of filter, e.g. a blue filter absorbs everything except blue light, so only blue light comes out, which is why the filter looks blue, and is referred to as a "blue filter".


What colour does red appear when seen through a blue filter?

The reason we call a blue filter a "blue filter" is that it looks blue. The reason it looks blue is that blue light is the only kind of light that can go all the way through it. Any other color of light gets absorbed in the dyes between the layers of the filter, and never comes out the other side. If you shine red light at one side of a blue filter, the other side of the filter looks dark, as if nothing is shining through it. And if you look at a 'red' sweater through a blue filter, the sweater looks black.


What color would white light appear viewed through red filter and pure blue?

Red or blue. The reason a red filter looks and is red, is because only red light comes through it, and the same can be said about a blue filter allowing only blue light through. Other colors are absorbed by the dyes in the filter. If white light enters a red filter, then red light comes out, and the same goes for blue.
