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
Look at the diagram given. This is the first prism. What happen if A SECOND inverted prism is placed behind the first prism?
the various colours pass through it and form brighter spectrum
the various colours pass through it and form a white light back
the various colours pass through it and form an opposite spectrum colours
nothing will happen
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.
Why is the spectrum of light separated into its components of color when white light is directed to a prism?
Because light reflects off the prism's surface
The incident white light refracts and separates into its constituent colors
The white light is absorbed by the prism, separating its colors
The light speeds up as it moves from air into the denser plastic material
