The splitting of composite white light into its constituent colors is called dispersion. Such a dispersion phenomenon is performed by the prism. Not a reflection process.
The reason for the split is that the speed of light in a refractive medium differs for different frequencies ie colours. Violet colour as it has highest frequency in the visible region, moves slower in the medium and red with lowest frequency moves faster in the same medium.
What else can I help you with?
Can a blue object absorb the color blue and refracts all other colors?
No, a blue object absorbs most colors except blue, which it reflects. It does not refract colors in the same way that a prism or water droplet does.
How does a prism work and what it does?
What exactly does a "prism" do? How does it work?well it turns out that a prism has light that reflects and on the other side out comes colors of the rainbow
What happens when you add a upside Down prism to the ray of colors?
When you pass a ray of colors through an upside-down prism, the prism will refract the colors in the opposite direction of a regular prism. This will cause the colors to separate and scatter, creating a unique and inverse dispersion pattern.
Why does a glass prism show so many colours when light passed through it?
A glass prism shows many colors when light passes through it because white light is made up of different colors with different wavelengths. When light enters the prism, it undergoes refraction, causing each color in the light spectrum to bend at slightly different angles due to their different wavelengths, resulting in the separation of colors we see as a rainbow.
How do we see different colors in a prism when it reflects?
this is called refraction. light is made up of seven different colours as seen in a rainbow. a glass prism breaks the light up into its base colours. this is the same principle a rainbow is made by only rainbow uses watere droplets to refract the light.
How a prism reflects colors?
cows are cool haha
How does a prism reflects colors?
A prism reflects colors by bending and separating white light into its individual components due to the process of refraction. This separation occurs because each color of light has a different wavelength and is refracted at a slightly different angle, resulting in the spectrum of colors being visible.
Can a blue object absorb the color blue and refracts all other colors?
No, a blue object absorbs most colors except blue, which it reflects. It does not refract colors in the same way that a prism or water droplet does.
Different colors are dispersed by a prism because different colors in the prism have different?
frequencies

How does a prism allow us to see more than just white light?
I got this ! A prism allows you to see more then just white light because the sun reflects to the prism and then that light gets absorbed and reflected back into our eyes to see all the colors of the spectrum.

When you pass a ray of colors through an upside-down prism, the prism will refract the colors in the opposite direction of a regular prism. This will cause the colors to separate and scatter, creating a unique and inverse dispersion pattern.

What colors does white light contain?
White light contains all the colors of the visible spectrum, including red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. This is why white light can be separated into its component colors when passing through a prism.
What did you observe with the indicates of the colors of the light in the acrylic prism?
why did you observe with indices of refraction of the colors of light in the acrylic prism
