What is the break up of sunlight into colors?

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 are the primary colors of the rainbow?

the primary colors of the rainbow are red blue and yellow


How do prisms create a spectrum of colors?

Prisms create spectrum of colors by the cause of refraction.


Where can you see a spectrum?

The question probably refers to a light spectrum, and the most familiar apparition of that is a rainbow. If Nature isn't cooperating at the moment, one can make a mini-rainbow by holding a garden hose on the "spray" setting and standing with one's back to the Sun. Technically, the range of visible light is less than one octave on the whole spectrum of Electromagnetic radiation, which covers more than sixty octaves, so there's a lot of spectra we can't see at all. Fun Fact: No two people ever see the same rainbow, because it's not a "thing" but an effect. Each droplet of water acts as a tiny prism and contributes a different bit of light to each eye.


White light can be separated into spectrum of colors because each color of light?

Has a different wavelength and energy. At the red end of the spectrum the wavelength is longer and frequency is lower, it will be less easily refracted than light towards the blue end of the spectrum, which is higher in frequency and has a shorter wavelength. The separation of the colours is called dispersion.
