the size of the spectrum depends on the size of the prism.
works best in just sun.
Wow that prism sure makes some pretty colors when light shines through it!
When white light(composite light) consisting of various colors is passed through a prism, light of different colors will be deviated through different angles. Since the deviation is related to refractive index and refractive index to the color of light the deviation produced for different colors are different for same prism.That is the refractive indices are different for the various colors and this difference in the refractive indices is responsible for dispersion.

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.
A prism demonstrates this principle?no never ifsfrdi
red light is monochromatic light and if it shines on a prism its still red light pass through the prism, not 'rainbow' color.
When ordinary visible light shines on a prism.
White light separates into seven colours
They separate light into the light spectrum. If a beam of light shines through a prism, a rainbow of color will show out through the opposite side.

After a rain shower you can usually see a rainbow in the sky. If you shine light through a prism you see a rainbow or more correctly the colour spectrum
The water acts like a prism and white light shines through it, it makes a rainbow.
it makes a rainbow
Red light, going in a different direction.
The diamond acts as a prism breaking the light into different wavelengths.
They both involve a spectrum. If you shine light through a prism, it splits it up into the 7 colours of the rainbow. Rainbow is created when light shines through water, so rainbow is just another word for a spectrum. See? GCSE Physics pays off! =)
