What is the instrument used to break white light into a rainbow?
I believe that you are talking about a prism, and the process where the light is broken up in to its constituent parts is called dispersion
What can be used to represent light rays?
On a diagram that include light rays, lines with arrows on them to represent the direction of the light rays could be used. Hope that answers your question.
What can be used to refract white light?
a prism can be used to refract wight light
What type of prism is used to study ultra violet light?
prism of quartz
Is a prism used to turn white light into black light?
No. It is used to split white light into its separate colors.
How do you define a prism?
In optics a prism is a transparent solid body, often having triangular bases, used for dispersing light into a spectrum or for reflecting rays of light. In geometry a prism is a solid having bases or ends that are parallel, congruent polygons and sides that are parallelograms. In crystallography a prism is a form having faces parallel to the vertical axis and intersecting the horizontal axes.

Why is the constant deviation spectrometer named so?
It is named after the type of prism used in the instrument. A constant deviation prism has the property that the angle between light entering the prism (the incident light) and light exiting the prism (the emergent light) is always the same, no matter what the angle of the incident light to the prism.
What tool can be used to refract light?
A prism
What can be used to separate light into all of the colors?
A prism can be used to separate light into its component colors.
What is a piece of glass used to diffract light?
PRISM
Is a prism used to turn white light into black light?
No. It is used to split white light into its separate colors.
What are light rays used for?
so you can see .
What did newton use to separate white light into spectrum of colors?
Newton Discovered that White light comprised of the entire spectrum of the visible wave length. When white light was shone through a triangular prism, it refracted the entire color spectrum.
