How many colors to make white color?

If you are talking about light and not pigment, then the blending of all the frequencies of visible light gives white. It's more of a continuum of frequencies rather than a mix of discrete colors.


How does a prism works to separate the colors in white light?

White light has all visible frequencies incorporated in it. A prism refracts different frequencies at different angles so the different frequencies (colors) spread out.


What is white light frequency?

White light is a mixture of different colors; so there are different frequencies.


Why do you see white light?

White light is a mixture of different frequencies, that are within the range of light our eyes can see.


What makes white light?

Light can occur at different frequencies. These frequencies lie on a spectrum, if you want an idea of what the frequencies look like, have a look at a rainbow, with red at the lowest frequency and blue/violet at the highest for visible light. When all of these frequencies are mixed together (like the light created from the "white hot" sun) white light is the result.


When light from all frequencies of the visible range are combined what is the result?

white light


What kind of light does white light contain?

A mixture of all the visible frequencies.


White light is a combination of electromagnetic waves with frequencies from what?

the range of visible light.


What are the changes in diffraction pattern if monochromatic light is replaced by white light?

Then each of the many different frequencies will have its own, and different, diffraction pattern.


Is White light is made up of an mixture of many colors of light?

White light is what we see when light of all (or most) of the frequencies in the visible spectrum are emitted together from the same source. It is the combination of every visible light wave.


Why the word white is used in the white noise?

This is just a guess, but i think it is because the color white is a mixture of frequncies of light ranging from red to violet, so if you look at the wave pattern, it will look like a complete mess. By contrast, a single colour will have a nice neat wave pattern. Therefore, i would assume that "white" is used as a metaphor for a wave which consists of a mixture of lots of different frequencies. White light is the combination of all visible frequencies of light, white noise is the combination of many (but not all) audible frequencies of sound.


Where does white light comes from?

light as it originates from the sun or a bulb before it is broken into different frequencies
