A prism will split white light into its constituent colours (the colours of the rainbow).
"White light" is the light we see around us i.e. natural light from the sun. This light is made up of all the colours in the visible spectrum
The color of a light bulb does not impact the dispersion of light through a prism. A prism separates white light into its component colors based on the different wavelengths of light, regardless of the color of the light source.
When light passes through a prism, the color that is reflected the most depends on the properties of the prism and the angle at which the light enters. Generally, all colors of light are refracted to different degrees by the prism, with each color having a different wavelength and therefore a different angle of refraction.
When red light from a laser shines on a prism, it will be refracted (bent) by the prism and split into its component colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet). This is due to each color having a different wavelength and therefore a different angle of refraction when passing through the prism.
Red light is refracted the least by a prism as it has the longest wavelength.
The color prism is a tool that separates white light into its different colors through a process called dispersion. When white light passes through a prism, it is refracted or bent at different angles depending on the wavelength of each color. This separation of colors is what creates the rainbow effect seen when light is dispersed through a prism.

The color prism is a tool that separates white light into its different colors through a process called dispersion. When white light passes through a prism, it is refracted or bent at different angles depending on the wavelength of each color. This separation of colors is what creates the rainbow effect seen when light is dispersed through a prism.
A prism works by refracting white light into its component colors, which have different wavelengths. This separation of colors occurs due to the different angles at which each color of light is bent as it passes through the prism, known as dispersion. This results in the colorful spectrum that is seen when looking at white light through a prism.
The term for the change in direction of light as it enters a prism is called refraction. This is caused by the light wave bending as it travels through the prism due to the change in speed caused by entering a different medium.
The light ray will bend towards the normal (perpendicular line to the surface of the prism) as it enters the glass prism. This is due to the change in speed of light as it transitions from air to glass, causing refraction.
By passsing it through a prism.
When white light enters the prism, it is refracted at different angles based on its wavelength (color). This causes the different colors to separate because each color has a unique wavelength and is bent by the prism by different amounts. Water can also refract light, but it doesn't break it down into colors like a prism.
Refraction is the phenomenon causes colors of visible light to be separated by a prism.
