They don't demonstrate light; they assume that you have light in the first place.
Refraction occurs when light travels through a medium with different optical density, causing a change in its speed and direction. This phenomenon can occur without dispersion, which specifically refers to the separation of light into different colors based on their wavelengths. Dispersion cannot occur without refraction because the bending of light during refraction is necessary for different colors to be refracted at different angles, leading to dispersion.

refraction is when light bends because of the change in desity, dispersion is white light that splits in a prism inot the colours of the spectrum (red, yellow, orange, green, blue, indigo and violet) so refraction is light changing direction and dispersion is white light splitting inot the colours of the spectrum (red, yellow, orange, green, blue, indigo and violet).
Refraction can separate white light into the spectrum of visible light from red to violet.
Dispersion.
Light exhibits refraction, diffraction, dispersion, and all the other properties of waves.
Many phenomenons can occur: refraction, reflexion, absorption, dispersion, scattering, transmission.
Its NT light energy it is the dispersion or splitting of light due 2 refraction. It is called 'spectrum' of light.
Dispersion will occur, in the sense that the phase velocity of the different wavelengths will be different. What you may be asking is whether refraction (a change in the direction of the light) will occur. Refraction will only be visible if the light impacts at an oblique angle, not 90 degrees.
Rainbows get their colors from the reflection, refraction, and dispersion of light in water droplets. When sunlight passes through the droplets, the light is separated into its different colors, creating the rainbow effect we see in the sky.
Dispersion occurs during refraction because different wavelengths of light bend at different angles when they pass through a medium, leading to separation of colors. In reflection, light waves maintain their original composition as they bounce off a surface and do not bend or separate into different colors.
All the colours of light travel at different wavelengths.The length of the wavelengths depends on the amount of energy that the colour has. For example, red light has the longest wavelength, thus having the lowest energy. When the wavelengths of the colours change, due to a less or more dense atmosphere, the colours split. This is called Dispersion (the splitting of white light).
