Why is the component of colour in a rainbow can be seen when light passes through a glass prism?

• phenomena of scattering of light

• phenomena of dispersion of light

• phenomena of reflection of light

• phenomena of diffraction of light

How many components of white light?

• 5

• 6

• 7

• 8

Why is the spectrum of light seperated into its components of colour when white light is directed to a prism?

• The different colours in the white light bend away from the normal line at different angles when entering prism

• The different colours in the white light bend towards the normal line at different angles when entering prism

• The different colours in the white light bend away from the normal at same speed to each other when entering prism

• The different colours in the white light bend towards the normal at same speed to each other when entering prism

This is the example of dispersion of light

• sky looks bright orange in the evening

• shadow

• Pool seems shallower

• rainbow

These are all colours of spectrum except

• indigo

• blue

• purple

• green

Why is red light is at the top whileviolet at the bottom of the spectrum?

• Violet light has the medium speed so it is refracted the least.

• Violet light has the highest speed so it is refracted the least

• Red light has the slowest speed so it is refracted the least

• Red light has the highest speed so it is refracted the least.

What is being blocked when a shadow is formed?

• Light Source
• Light Path
• Object
• Eye

Which of the following is NOT a source of light?

• eyes

• lit candle

• sun

• firefly

We are able to see the moon because it ____________
