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 through
a prism, a spread of different colors will come out of the prism, because each color
bends through a slightly different angle on its way through the prism.

What is the relationship between the color of light and its wavelength?
Each color has a wavelength and frequency associated with it. We're familiar with the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. These colors range from longer wavelength (lower frequency) red up through shorter wavelength (higher frequency) violet. As one moves up through those colors from red to violet, the color is an indication to relative wavelength.
What did you observe with the indices of refraction of the colors of light in the acrylic prism?
why did you observe with indices of refraction of the colors of light in the acrylic prism
What colors are associated with wavelength?
Of the colors visible to humans, red light has the lowest wavelength. Violet light and white light have the highest wavelengths.
Which visible colors has the most energy?
one of them is violet and ultra violet
How do light colors have higher frequencies and darker colors have lower frequencies?
Darker colors like violet and blue actually have the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequency. If you look at the visible spectrum, the order from highest to lowest would go violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red.
When the pink colored light of glowing hydrogen passes through a prism what colors can you see?
Hydrogen breaks down into four colors. Violet at 410 nm, blued/violet at 434 nm blue/green at 464.4 nm and red of 656.2 nm.
When sunlight passes through a prism the different wavelengths separate into an what of colors?
A spectrum. The rainbow is an example of refracted light.
When white light passes through a prism what colors are produced?
All the colors off the rainbow, Red Blue Green Orange Indigo Violet
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.
What is the casue of spectral lines?
Firstly spectral lines means the spectrum the band of 7 colors. The spectral lines are formed because when the light passes through tough medium it passes through the medium but the white light gets disintegrated into seven colors . The band includes the colors violet, indigo, blue, green ,yellow orange , red.

What happens to the different colors of light when white light shines on a opaque violet object?
it reflects violet and absorbs the other colors
White light breaks up into different colors when it passes through a prism because of?
White light is a mixture of colored light, and that each color is refracted to a different extent. The different colors correspond to light with different wavelengths, and are refracted to different degrees. This separation of colors is known as dispersion. Which causes the seperation of white light into seven colours Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.
Why are colors present in rainbows?
Light is naturally made up of the different colors. It is just that when we see it, it appears white because all the colors are blended together. Rainbows occur when sunlight passes through the raindrops. The white light is refracted in millions and millions of raindrops. In these white light, there are the different colors that travel at different speed. The color red refracts less because it is slower while the violet color of the rainbow refracts more because it is faster. The colours of the rainbow are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
Is violet different from purple?
Yes. Violet is lighter and purple has a different way of its color. Yes. Purple is a color, and violet is a shade of that color.
When white light passes through a prism what color bends the most?
Violet
What colour refracts the most when a ray of light passes through a prism?
violet
