Splitting Light

The video tutorial explores the nature of light and color, explaining how white light is composed of various colors. Through an experiment using a prism, it demonstrates how light is refracted and split into its constituent colors. The tutorial also covers the concept of wavelengths, showing how different colors have different wavelengths, with red having the longest and violet the shortest. It extends the discussion to the electromagnetic spectrum, highlighting that visible light is just a small part of it. Finally, it explains how broadcast quality cameras use prisms to achieve lifelike colors by splitting light into red, green, and blue wavelengths.
