Because all the constituent colors of white light have same speed so, refractive index for the constituent colors are same for air as a result dispersion doesn't occur.

Why is white light dispersed?

White light is dispersed because it is composed of different colors with varying wavelengths. When white light passes through a prism or a diffraction grating, each color is refracted at a slightly different angle, causing the different colors to spread out and form a spectrum. This dispersion occurs due to the differences in the speed of light in the medium for each color.


How white light will appear once passed through a soap bubble?

It will have been dispersed into the spectrum


What happens after the light is absorbed by a radiometer?

After the light is absorbed by a radiometer, the black and white vanes inside start to rotate due to the thermal expansion of the air molecules around them. The rotation occurs because the black side absorbs more light and heats the air more than the white side, causing a pressure difference that drives the movement.


How are eucalyptus seeds dispersed?

Why is red light dispersed?

Red light is dispersed because it has a longer wavelength compared to other colors in the visible spectrum. This longer wavelength causes red light to be bent or scattered more as it travels through a medium, such as air or water, resulting in its dispersion.


What spectrum does white light form?

What All of the visable color light waves together make up?

All visible color light waves together make up white light. White light is a combination of all the colors in the visible spectrum, which can be seen when light is dispersed through a prism.


What appearance does emulsions have when light shines out?

Emulsions typically appear white or opaque when light shines through them. This is due to the scattering of light by the dispersed particles in the emulsion, which causes the light to be reflected in multiple directions.


How do you disperse white light?

White light is dispersed when it passes through a medium of one refractive index into a medium of a different refractive index, such as from air to crystal. However, if the light then exits the second medium from a side parallel to the side of entry-as it would with a pane of glass-it will recombine into white light. If the sides of the second medium are not parallel, then the white light will be dispersed. The greater the angle between the sides of entry and exit, the further apart the bands of light will be. The longer the path length through the second medium, the further apart the bands of light will be, too. Additionally, the greater the difference in the refractive indices between the two media, the further apart the bands of light will be. The reason diamonds have so much "fire" is because their fractive index is so much higher than that of most other gemstones, moissanite being a notable exception.
