What else can I help you with?
Why do you see rainbow colours when you look through a plastic transparent ruler?
Because it splits the light ray into the different coloured rays that make up a regular visible light ray all the colours of the rainbow make the light colour that we see when they are mixed togethet
Which scientist discovered that when light passes through a prism it splits into the seven colors that are colors of the rainbow?
Isaac Newton discovered that when light passes through a prism, it splits into the seven colors of the rainbow. This phenomenon is known as the dispersion of light.
What is white light in a rainbow?
White light in a rainbow is sunlight that is composed of all the colors in the visible spectrum. When sunlight passes through raindrops, it is refracted and dispersed into its different wavelengths, creating the beautiful spectrum of colors seen in a rainbow.
Which object helps people understand what makes up white light?
A triangular prism. It splits a beam of white light into its constituent colours.
What do we mean by waves have a color spectrum known as roygbiv?
ROYGBIV is an acronym for the colors of the visible light spectrum: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. When white light passes through a prism, it splits into different colors due to each color having a different wavelength, creating the rainbow spectrum.
What happens when light is shone at a prism?
It splits into the colours that make it up, so white light makes a rainbow, and different colours produce different results.
What material allows some light to pass through it?
the material glass allows light to pass through it. when it passes through it changes the light into the colours of the rainbow. the colours come because the glass splits the light.
Why does water and sun form a rainbow?
Because the tiny particles of water in the air reflect the sunlight. The light splits and certain colours are reflected.
The colours of light makes a?
rainbow
When light is spilt up into the colors of the rainbow its called?
refraction, do this by shining white light (all the colours) through a prism which then splits the wave lengths into sperate paths showing all the colours of white light. So white light has a specific frequency, shine it through a prism and you split the frequency up into smaller bits hence the colours of light.
Why do you see rainbow colours when you look through a plastic transparent ruler?
Because it splits the light ray into the different coloured rays that make up a regular visible light ray all the colours of the rainbow make the light colour that we see when they are mixed togethet
What light contains all the colors of the rainbow?
It's "white light". When all colours of the rainbow are combined in their purest form (light), they create white light. All colours of the rainbow can be derived from the colours red, green and blue. These 3 colours are known as the RGB colour model (Red, Green, Blue). When these three colours are combined in their purest form, they also form white light
What happens when you make a rainbow with the help of a glass of water and sunlight?
The sunlight hits the glass of water and then the light disperses out as a spectrum of colour (rainbow). This is because sunlight is white light and white light contains the 7 colours of the rainbow. When it hits the glass the colours refract and disperse out as the spectrum of colours, which we see as a rainbow.
Why are rainbows colorful?
light from the sun is know as 'white light'. it is made up of all of the colours seen in the rainbow. when it rains, the light is split up into these different colours in the same way it would if you passed light through a glass prism. Therefore light splits up into its individual colours when it rains, and this is what a rainbow is.
What color of light are the colors of the rainbow combined?
Mixing the light colours of the rainbow will produce white light (i.e. daylight).
Which scientist discovered that when light passes through a prism it splits into the seven colors that are colors of the rainbow?
Isaac Newton discovered that when light passes through a prism, it splits into the seven colors of the rainbow. This phenomenon is known as the dispersion of light.
Why does rainbows have many colors?
Rainbow is made from refraction & total internal reflection of light of the sun. The light of sun is white, which is combination of 7 colours. When rainbow occoures, white light is divide into all these colours. That's why rainbows have many colours.
