The components of the visible light spectrum all (Yellow, red, green blue, indigo, and all the others) combined is the color white.
Light produced by mixing all colors of the visible spectrum?
white light
Refraction can separate white light into?

What is the Visible?
White light is composed of many colours. When these colours combine, they look white. One way of showing that white light is composed of different colours is to make white light pass through a glass prism. This splits up the white light into its constituent colours. I f you hold a screen in its path, you will see a band of colours. This band of colours is called the spectrum. Since it is visible to human eyes, it is called the visible spectrum.

Can white light be broken up into various colours of light?
Yes visible light is part of what is called the electromagnetic spectrum. White light is actually all of the visible spectrum being seen. This is demonstrated by white light passing through a prism and being broken up into its component colors, such as a rainbow.
Why do the colors split up in the spectrum?
White light can be split up into lots of different coloured light waves using a prism. We call this range of colours the visible spectrum.
