Blue light deviates more than red light when passing through a prism because it has a shorter wavelength and higher frequency, causing it to refract more. This leads to different angles of separation for the colors of the light spectrum as they pass through the prism.

Why does the violet colour deviates the most and the red color deviates the least in a spectrum?

In the spectrum each color has a wavelength in which red has the highest wavelength while violet has smallest wavelength, so particles are able to disperse violet more effectively than red, so violet is deviated the most & red is deeviated the least...can u figure out why traffic lights have stop sign as red??


Why does widening the prism cause the beam to bend more?

Widening the prism causes the beam to encounter the prism surface at a more oblique angle, increasing the amount it deviates when entering and exiting the prism. This increased deviation results in a greater bend in the light beam.


Why does white color reflects more light than a dark color?

white is all the colours mixed together e.g. white light is made up of red,blue and green light. Black is the absense of colour, it isn't actually a colour the same as white isn't a colour. White's all the colours together. This is why it reflect's other colours better.


What colour of light is refracted most?

Violet light is refracted the most because it has the shortest wavelength among visible light, causing it to bend more when passing through a medium.


How do you know that most objects reflect more than on colour of light?

You can diffract the light reflect from the object and see what range of spectrum is absorbed and what is reflected. It is to mentioned, human had trichromatic vision. We base our vision of colour from the portion of red blue and green. The real colour in spectrum is however continue of colour from red to violet. By having only 1 colour of light reflect, the object had to specifically absorb exact the other 2 portion of light human can see which is extremely rare for natural objects without specific design to absorb light at exactly cover the other 2 spectrum human can see. So it is most objects would reflect more than one colour of light.

How the thickness of the atmosphere affects how light is bent?

when light travels from one medium to another it deviates from its normal path. the deviation is dependent on the refractive index of the medium. Bending of light ray also depends on the thickness of the medium. therefore more the thickness more is the deviation caused and more is the bending.

What colour star has the highest surface temperature?

maybe light blue, near white..like fire on the stove,more light, more heat..


Is there such thing as dark white?

The colour 'white' when all of the light is bounced of the surface on which the colour is mounted. If the colour is darkened then there will be some light being absorbed into the surface. This means that the colour is no longer 'white' more of a grey or possibly black. :)

You never use colours that clash. You want to be able to see your data. So you either have a dark colour on a light background or a light colour on a dark background.

Why is the sun orange in appearance?

It's more of a white colour in space, but scattering of the light within our atmosphere gives it more of a yellow colour, or orange when it is closer to sunrise or sunset (more atmosphere to penetrate at these angles)


Which is more colorful black or white?

In terms of light colour, the most colourful would be white, as it is a combination of the entire light colour spectrum. In terms of physical colour, it would be black, as it is the combination of all physical colours. In terms of them simply as colours, it would be neither as they are not considered colours, but variations of light and dark.


What affects the color of light?

if the light passes through something that is coloured the light changes colour to the colour that it passed through
