Index of refracting or refracting Index is the measure of light ray passing from one medium. When light passes through an acrylic prism, the light refracts or bends and separates making color of yellow, blue, red, green, orange and violet. The separation of colors is also called dispersion. The index of refraction for each colors are different. Sample is, red light is a little different from violet light in terms of angle refraction. Also, for every medium, index of refraction are different too.

How does refraction can separate white light into color?
The reason white light is separated into colors is because light of different colors have slightly different indices of refraction. Thus, for example, red light might be bent a little bit more than blue light.
How is refraction of light related to wave length of colors?
The longer the wavelength, the greater the angle of refraction.
An arc of colored light in the sky caused by refraction of the suns rays by rain?
Refraction of sunlight by raindrops, the refraction depending upon wavelength to produce the colors
Refraction can separate white light into what?
Refraction can separate white light into the spectrum of visible light from red to violet.
How does refraction create the colors of visible spectrum?
i came here for the answer and your telling me to answer it . i think as the wave stretches the colors begin to reduce. like red into orange etc.

Why is light broken into different colors when it passes through a prism?
Refraction. White light is a mix of colors in the first place; these colors have different indices of refraction. That is, when moving from air to glass, as in a prism, they will bend at slightly different angles.

The reason white light is separated into colors is because light of different colors have slightly different indices of refraction. Thus, for example, red light might be bent a little bit more than blue light.
How do prisms create a spectrum of colors?
Prisms create spectrum of colors by the cause of refraction.
How is refraction of light related to wave length of colors?
The longer the wavelength, the greater the angle of refraction.
What is the difference between diffraction and dispersion?
Diffraction = The amount of light passing through a photographic lens being adjusted by a diaphragm. Dispersion = The splitting of light of different colors due to the different indices of refraction at different wavelengths when the light enters a lens or prism.
Where do colors of light came from?
Refraction Search it in google
What to do if acrylic colors get dry?
if too thick, it will get fissured
Of what are acrylic colors and water colors made up of?
It is made up of magical colors like blue and purple!!
Is there a chart that compares oil paint colors to acrylic colors?
In fact there are many different charts comarring oil paint colors to acrylic colors. You could check with you art parfesser or art teacher. Wal*mart might even have some :)
