An optical prism can be used to disperse light from the sun's spectrum into all of its constituent colors. It is the same concept that gives rise to the phenomenon of rainbows.

What tools can be used to break up white light?
Breaking of white lights means dispersion of light in which the white light or the visible light splits into 7 colors. Many tools may be used to break up the white light but among them one of them is Prism. It can break up the white lights into 7 colors. Keep a white paper in front of the prism and the prism in the sun due to which the sunlight coming from the sun passes through the prism and the white breaks up into 7 colors due to change in velocity of the different invisible lights inside the white or the visible light. Other tools like plastic scale or ruler also can be used to break up the white light. Thank you
What colour attracts the sun?
Colors do not "attract" heat. The heat is already present in the light around the area. The color either absorbs or reflects the light. Black absorbs the most. White reflects the most. The darker the color is, the more light/heat it absorbs.
Why do rainbows form?
After the rain, small water particles are dispersed in the air. As the sunlight (white light) consists of seven colors, so when it passes through the water droplets, they are split up into there constituents according to the velocities of color. In this way a rainbow is formed.
Which color water evaporates the fastest?
If your talking in color such as dark colors and light colors, i would say dark colors. I did this experiment once and the darker water evaporated faster in sunlight because dark colors absorb alot of the suns rays. This also depends where you put the water. If you put it outside, dark water evaporates faster, inside is clear water. Also the temperature
Do you think photodegradable plastic that is buried in a landfill will break down quickly why or why not?
No it won't a because photodegradable means it will break down if exposed to sunlight, but since it is in a land fill there won't be much exposure to the sun, so that means it will slowly break down in the land fill.
Sunlight tot shine through rain drops and break up into its many colors?
When sunlight shines through raindrops, a rainbow may be the result.
How does color form?
Colors are able to form by water droplets that can break sunlight into several colors of the spectrum. Colors can also form by light absorption, emission spectra and reflection.
When sunlight is passed through a glass prism it breaks up into different colors when these colors are passed through a reverse prism they form white light this shows that?
sunlight contains all colors.
How is a prism able to break sunlight into its component colours?
Different colors of light travel at slightly different speeds in the material of the prism. This causes a refraction that spreads apart the colors.
How can you break up sunlight into a spectrum?
Of course. That's where the rainbow comes from.
WHY DO rainbows have colours for kids?
Rainbows have colors because sunlight is made up of different colors of light. When sunlight passes through raindrops, it gets refracted and reflects inside the raindrop, separating the light into its different colors. This creates the spectrum of colors that we see in a rainbow.
Who first studied component colors of sunlight?
Newton first studies the components of colors in sunlight. Newton also discovered gravitational force and came up with the three Universal Laws of Motion.
What happens to a ray of light as it passes through a prism if it is single colour?
That depends on the color. Some colors will break up into other colors. Some colors will not break up, and the ay of light will remain the same color.
Why did Justin break up with his vampire girlfriend on wizards of Waverly place?
He didn't break up with her. He let the zombie take her to protect her from the sunlight.
What colors does sunlight have in it?
Yellow.

How does sunlight and color relate?
Sunlight contains all the colors (wavelengths) in the visible light spectrum. This is evidenced by the colors seen in rainbows.
