What is an optical device that is often used to refract white light called?
A prism. This will also split the white light. The prism is the most commonly used in experiments and demonstrations. However, there are other shaped tools that are sometimes used.
What tool turns white light into colored light?
A prism is a tool that can turn white light into colored light by separating the light into its different wavelengths. This process is known as dispersion, where the different colors of white light (spectrum) are visible as they refract at different angles.
What effects does a prism have on white light?
A prism can separate white light into its component colors, creating a rainbow effect called dispersion. This happens because different colors of light refract at slightly different angles when passing through the prism, causing them to spread out.
Can opaque substances refract light?
No, opaque substances do not refract light. Refraction occurs when light passes through a transparent medium and changes speed, causing the light to bend. Opaque substances do not allow light to pass through them, so there is no refraction.
Do windows refract light?
Yes, windows can refract light. When light passes through a window, the change in speed and direction of the light can cause it to bend or refract. This is why you might see rainbows or colors appear when light passes through a window.

What triangular shape is used to refract light into color?
A prism is a triangular shape used to refract light into its component colors.
What tool can be used to refract light?
A prism
What are ways you could reflect and refract light?
The most refractive color is white, so the whiter U are the more U will refract/reflect~

Why do colors combined make white?
That is not true. If you are talking about all the colours of light in the spectrum coming from white light that is true. When white light passes through a glass prism, it causes the light to split into different colours because of the different angles at which they refract.
Can opaque substances refract light?
No, opaque substances do not refract light. Refraction occurs when light passes through a transparent medium and changes speed, causing the light to bend. Opaque substances do not allow light to pass through them, so there is no refraction.
What is a piece of material which light can pass through and is used to refract light?
A prism- can be made of glass or plastic
What is a curved piece of glass or other transparent substance that is used to refract light?
A lens
