A prism separates white light into different colors through a process called?
refraction
What is a prism and what does it do to a white light?
They separate light into the light spectrum. If a beam of light shines through a prism, a rainbow of color will show out through the opposite side.
What is the instrument used to break white light into a rainbow?
I believe that you are talking about a prism, and the process where the light is broken up in to its constituent parts is called dispersion
Is light bending going through a prism an example of a reflection?
Light bending as it passes through a prism is an example of refraction, not reflection.
Light is scattered as it passes through a?
Light is scattered as it passes through a prism.
What is the light produce a spectrum as it passes through the prism what is the process called?
Refraction
A prism separates white light into different colors through a process called?
refraction
What is light dispersement?
Light dispersion refers to the process of splitting light into different colors. This is achieved by passing light through a prism or a lens.

When light passes through a prism why does the light ray bend towards the base of the prism?
reflection
Is light bending going through a prism an example of a reflection?
Light bending as it passes through a prism is an example of refraction, not reflection.

Light is scattered as it passes through a prism.
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 light goes through a prism?
when normal white light is passed through a prism, it is split up into all the rainbow colors.
What a prism does to light?
As the light passes through the prism, the resulting effect is called a 'refraction'. In other words, the light enters from one side of the prism and is then 'redirected' at a right angle as it exits the prism.
When white light passes through a triangular prism it changes?
When white light passes through a prism it separates into its component wavelengths that we observe as colours.
