What else can I help you with?
When white light passes through a prism what color bends the most?
Blue light bends the most when white light passes through a prism because it has a shorter wavelength compared to other colors in the visible spectrum.
Why do you see a rainbow when white light is sent through a prism?
A prism bends different colors of light at different angles due to their different wavelengths. When white light enters a prism, it is separated into its component colors because each color bends by a different amount, resulting in the formation of a rainbow.
What bends light rays?
A prism bends light rays. White light is made up of many different wave lengths of light. A prism bends each wave length a different amount, that is why different colors are produced from the output side of a prism.
Which colour bends the most when white light is passed through a prism?
The violet colour will be refracted the most, it has a shorter wave length and a higher frequency. The red light will be refracted the least, with its longer wave length and lower frequency.
A concave lens bends light towards its what?
A concave lens bends light away from its center, diverging the light rays.

What is happens when light is refracted by matter?
the light bends.
What property of light bends light rays?
Refraction
When white light is refracted the amount that the light bends depends on what?
The medium. The denser the material the more light slows down as it enters. As it slows down the angle of refraction will be smaller than the angle of incidence and the ray will bend towards the normal. How much it bends will depend in the difference in speed which depends on the density of the material. The ratio between the 'speeds' is the refractive index. Look up refractive index and Snell's law.
Why light splits up into a rainbow?
What we think of as white light is in fact a mixture of many "colors", or frequencies of light. A prism or a water droplet merely separates them, or bends them so that we see them a split.
Where does light go when it refracted?
It bends.
Why does a prism cause white light to seperate into the colors of the spectrum?
Light bends in glass dependent on its thickness. Blue comes from the thin part and red from the thick part of a prism.
