Visible light rays
White light, which can split in to the colours is part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are, cosmic rays, X-rays, UV light, infra red(IR) waves, micro waves, and radio waves. m ic ray of the spectrum
The Sun is white hot - the red, yellow, and orange colors come from dust and smog in the air. Compared to other stars, the Sun is slightly in the yellow part of the spectrum, but to us it is white.
Its not. You can't see ultraviolet. (it lies just above the visible spectrum.)
Atoms in the atmosphere of the star is responsible for the dark lines in its spectrum.
Visible light radiation
If there were colors, that part of the spectrum would not be invisible.
One example is the visible spectrum : all the colors that you can see.
I suppose you mean the visible spectrum, only a small part of the entire electromagnetic spectrum. The visible spectrum is basically all of the colors the human eye can detect.
Because we can't see the colors on the spectrum so we have to use a graphto show the colors.
The colors you see are actually the part of the visible spectrum that the object does not absorb. For example, plants appear green because they absorb every color except for green, therefore the visible light that reflects from the surface of a plant only retains the green part of the spectrum.

The color spectrum is part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The color spectrum, often referred to as 'visible light' is only part of it. It is called visible light because it is the only spectrum that we can see with our eyes (we can't see x-rays, radiowaves, etc). The colors within it come in the order of ROYGBIV : Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet.
If an object absorbs all the colors of light, it will appear to be black. It is the reflected part of the spectrum that gives an object its color.
That is called refraction. I like to remember it by the fraction part of the word, as the light is being split into different colors, each a fraction of the whole.
Light bends in glass dependent on its thickness. Blue comes from the thin part and red from the thick part of a prism.
