When blue light goes through a prism what happens?
Blue light enters the prism and is refracted (bent) by the glass and emerges as blue light on the other side. Blue light is bent (refracted) most due to its slow(er) speed than say Red light which is faster and has a longer wavelength. Newton did an experiment like this and concluded that white light was made up of different colours of light together. Shine a white light through a prism and it will emerge as all the colours of the rainbow. Blue light is unchanged as it consists only of blue light Answered by Chris Banks.
Why is white light dispersed by a glass prism?
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.
When white light passes through a prism which will be bent more the red or green light?
In case of visible region, VIBGYOR, violet has the maximum bending.
What affect does a different colored light bulb have on a prism?
A prism will split light into its component colors. If a colored light is used, there will be less colors in the split light. A beam from a red light for instance will have very little blue or green light in it so you will not get the full spectrum from the prism.
Can light be separated into colors?
Using a prism a beam of light can generally be defracted into the different colors that make up that beam of light. The visible spectrum of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet can often be seen.
What happens to the spectrum if a red light shines on a prism?
red light is monochromatic light and if it shines on a prism its still red light pass through the prism, not 'rainbow' color.
What happens when a red light is shone in a prism?
I don't know
What happens when light is shone through a prism?
It depends on the shape of the prism and the angle of incidence. For prism in the shape of an equilateral triangle the white light splits into the colours of the spectrum as red light is slowed down less than blue in glass, so the red light is bent less than the blue
What happens when mixes different light together to a prism?
If you separate "white" light in a prism, you get the visible spectrum, (ROYGBIV). If you get that back together, you get "white" light. If you mix red and blue, you get purple, and so on.
What happens when light passes a prism?
When light passes through a prism, it is refracted slightly and separated into seven individual beams of coloured light - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
Which color of light is dispersed most by a prism?
The refractive index of violet light is most in a glass prism and is the least for the red light. So violet light is most refracted in the glass prism.
When white light is passed through prism why is it observed that violet light bends more than red light?
The speed of violet light is slower than the red light in the prism.
If the laser that emits red light shines on a prism what will emerge?
Red light, going in a different direction.
What happens when a red light hits a white object?
the part the red light touches will turn red...like if u get a red laser pointer and point it at a white paper.
What happens when a light hits a prism?
When Light(White Light) enters a prism through one of its face, due to difference in the refractive indexes of the medium i.e. air and the glass of which the prism is made up of, and the difference in the wavelengths of difference colors of which white light is made up of the light scatters and a SPECTRUM of different colors is observed. However the scattering of light may depend upon the angle of incidence also as if the prism is kept at an angle where the angle is incidence is greater than the critical angle of prism, the light may undergo TOTAL INTERNAL REFLECTION i.e. TIR..!!
What happens when red light hits red paper?
The answer has a lot to do with why you call it "red paper". Could that be becausethe paper absorbs light of any other color, and reflects the red light toward your eyes ?
What happens when a red filter is between prism and screen?
Eh
