1. - It is refracted (bent) relative to the source.

2. - The spectrum is separated, the amount depending on the thickness and curvature.

3. - A small part of the light is reflected off the lens, not passing through it.

4. - Assuming a 'perfect' regular (convex) lens, all light passing through the lens focuses at a single point in space, (focal point).

5. - Any image passing through the lens is reversed, equidistant from the focal point.

What happens when the light passes through an inverted prism?

When light passes through an inverted prism, the light rays are refracted in the opposite direction compared to when passing through a regular prism. This causes the light to diverge rather than converge, resulting in a wider dispersal of the light spectrum.

What happen to an electric current after it passes through each bulb?

There is a piece of filament in every light bulb, which has so much friction that when the electric current passes through it, heat energy is produced. This heat energy is then converted to light energy.


What would happen if one photon of light passes through an electric field?

Nothing in our everyday existence suggests that an electric field has any influence on light shining through it.


When light passes through a prism what does this reveal about white light?

When white light passes through a prism, it separates into its component colors, revealing that white light is actually made up of a spectrum of colors. This process is called dispersion, and it happens because the different colors of light bend by different amounts as they pass through the prism, causing them to spread out.


What happen to neon when electricity passes through it?

When electricity passes through neon gas, it excites the neon atoms, causing them to emit photons of light. This produces the characteristic bright glow that neon is known for.
