the light will reflect and will split in 7 colors.

The colors of the rainbow, in order, are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. When you shine white light through a prism, the light is refracted and separated into these colors based on their wavelengths.
Moons and comets appear to shine because of the light they reflect. Stars produce their own light.
Planets and comets shine because of reflected light because they do not produce their own light. Stars are enormous balls of gas that are undergoing fusion which releases a very large amount of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum which includes visible light. So stars shine because they produce their own light and not because they reflect light.
No planets reflect light from their host star (sun)
Colours shine out!
When the light ray strikes the surface of the prism, both when it enters and when it leaves, it bends owing to the different in the speeds of light in air and the material of which the prism is made. The amount of bending depends in part on the frequency of the light which is related to the colour of the light, hence the appearance of a colour spectrum which can be seen from a triangular prism.
It's refracted, just as visible light is, *given* that the prism is transparent to UV. Since the angle of refraction increases with decreasing wavelength, expect UV to be refracted to a greater degree than visiblelight.
1. Go purchase a small triangular prism from a store specialising in child science toys and experiments. 2. Shine the prism in the light and it will bend the light, separating the spectrum into the 7 colours of the rainbow, red orange yellow green blue indigo and violet. 3. There's your rainbow.
White light from a Tungsten filiment lamp is best. If you shine a small ray of the white light in one end a rainbow ray should come out the other.

When light shines through a prism, it is refracted and dispersed into its component colors, creating a spectrum known as a rainbow. This happens because each color of light has a different wavelength and is bent at a different angle. The resulting spectrum shows the colors of the rainbow from red to violet.
When light travels through a prism, it is bent or refracted as it passes from air into the prism and then again as it exits the prism. Different colors of light are refracted by different amounts due to their different wavelengths, causing them to separate. This separation creates a rainbow effect known as dispersion.
Shining a laser through a prism will cause the beam to be refracted, splitting it into its component colors due to the different wavelengths of light being bent at different angles. This effect is known as dispersion.
When a rainbow is shone into a prism, the different colors in the rainbow will separate even further as they pass through the prism. This is because the prism refracts, or bends, each color of light by a slightly different amount due to their different wavelengths. The result is a beautiful display of the individual colors that make up the rainbow.
