What else can I help you with?
Newton discovered that the colors formed by a prism can be recombined to create light?
He discovers what is known as the rainbow, by using a prism to show that light is made up of all of those colors.
What is the break up of sunlight into colors?
An optical prism can be used to disperse light from the sun's spectrum into all of its constituent colors. It is the same concept that gives rise to the phenomenon of rainbows.
What color light is made when all 7 colors of the are present?
White. It is also called the spectrum.
When light is refracted through a prism different colours emerge where do the different colours come from?
Type your answer here... OK. White light is made of the colours of the spectrum (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet - these are the same as the colours of the rainbow). The reason you see these colours instead of wwhite when you shine white light through a prism is that the prism "bends" the light - which splits it into the colours of the spectrum. Red light is the longest, so it is bent the least, and Violet is the shortest - so it is bent the most. This is also how rainbows are made - the rain droplets act as prisms to disperse (split) the light into the colours of the spectrum.
Is White light is made up of an mixture of many colors of light?
White light is what we see when light of all (or most) of the frequencies in the visible spectrum are emitted together from the same source. It is the combination of every visible light wave.
What colors is white light made from?
White light is a mixture of many colors - basically, the color of the rainbow.
What color is made when combining the colors of the rainbow?
If you mean light, you get white. If you mean pigment, you get black.
What are all the colors in the rainbow put together?
When all the colors of the rainbow are combined, they form white light. This is because the colors of the rainbow are made up of different wavelengths of visible light that blend together to create white.
Why can a prism change white light to a rainbow?
A prism can change white light to a rainbow because white light is made up of different colors, each with a different wavelength. When white light enters a prism, the different colors of light are refracted by different amounts due to their unique wavelengths, causing them to spread out and form a spectrum of colors called a rainbow.
What is a rainbow made out of?
Its made when the suns light reflects the particles in rain the light from the sun is white light. white light is made up of many colors. when the light hits a raindrop the colors refract and reflect and are shown as the colors of the specrum. - animalgirl11
Is white light made up of all the colors you can see?
Yes, white light is made up of all the colors in the visible spectrum. These colors can be separated using a prism to form a rainbow.
What color is made when all the colors of the rainbow are mixed?
Mixing all of the colors together makes white light ( if you are talking about light). But if you mix all the opaque colours, i think you get black..
White light contains what?
If white light is bent through a prism the colors of the rainbow would appear. So to answer your question, white light is made up of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet.
When the colors of the rainbow combine what color does it make?
White. All of the colours are white with some colouring removed so every colour combined will make white.
What did isaac newtons glass prisms show?
white light is made of all colors of the rainbow.
What color do you get when you mix the colors of the rainbow together?
When you mix all the colors of the rainbow together, you get white light. This is because white light is made up of all the colors in the visible spectrum. This phenomenon is known as color addition or additive color mixing.
Which scientist first explained how a prism breaks white light into a rainbow of colors?
Sir Isaac Newton is credited with the first explanation of how a prism is used to break white light into a rainbow of colors. In 1666, Newton conducted experiments using prisms to demonstrate that white light is made up of a spectrum of colors.
