Why does the color spectrum appear as a band of colors?
since it passes through a prism or any form of a prism like water droplets after rain, the white light that passes through the prism is split into seven colors forms a band of colors.
When you look at white light through a glass prism you see a rainbow of color called?
light is white. if you mix the colors of the rainbow you get white. A prism separates the colors, showing a rainbow.
A device that uses a prism or diffraction grating to separate light into its color components?
A device for separating light into different colors is know as a ?
How do white light waves act when they enter a prism?
As we know there are seven color in a light. It travels in a same velocity when it passes through air, but when it passes through prism different color travels with different velocity, as a result the emergent light is seen in seven color. Ther are; voilent,indigo,blue,green,yellow,red,orange.....
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.
If a laser beam consists of light of only a single color will it produce a spectrum of colors when it passes through a glass prism?
No. Monochromatic light (light of a single color) will pass through the prism without dispersing. White light disperses into its constituent colors as it passes through a prism, and we therefore observe the different colors emerging in a dispersal pattern as the light emerges from the opposite side of the prism. Since monochromatic light is made up of only one color, there are no colors to disperse, and so the beam of light passes through the prism coherently.
Why is white light dispersed by a glass prism?
When white light(composite light) consisting of various colors is passed through a prism, light of different colors will be deviated through different angles. Since the deviation is related to refractive index and refractive index to the color of light the deviation produced for different colors are different for same prism.That is the refractive indices are different for the various colors and this difference in the refractive indices is responsible for dispersion.

What color do you see when a ray of white light goes through a prism?
all the colors of the rainbow
How do prisms make rainbows?
light passes through prism and the prism refracts the light dividing it into the colors of the visible color spectrum. They colors are red orange yellow green blue and violet.

How can you show white light is made up a brand of color?
white light travelled through the prism when bands of color emerge.It observed that each band of color refracted at a different angle.Which concluded that the prism was not the source of colors. That different colors much have been present already in white light.
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 does the violet light split into different colors when it passes through the prism?
Violet light does not split into different colors when it passes through a prism.If it goes in violet, it comes out violet.White light is a combination of light of many colors. If you pass white light througha prism, a spread of different colors will come out of the prism, because each colorbends through a slightly different angle on its way through the prism.
Why are color colors?
Colors are colors because it makes the world more interesting. I'm kidding when you have a prism, and you shine a light through it (cristal or glass prism) it makes a rainbow. How do rainbows form in the sky? Rainbows form because the light is shining through the water in a different place where it is raining.
