How is white light formed?
White light is formed by the combination of all the visible colors of the spectrum. This occurs when light waves of different frequencies and wavelengths blend together, resulting in the perception of white light. When white light passes through a prism, it separates into its individual colors due to each color having a different wavelength and bending at different angles.
Why does a soap bubble show beautiful colours when illuminated by white light?
A soap bubble shows beautiful colors when illuminated by white light due to interference of light waves. The thin film of soap in the bubble reflects light waves at different angles, causing some waves to interfere constructively and others to interfere destructively. This interference results in the different colors observed on the bubble's surface.
What is the source of white light?
White light is typically produced by a combination of light waves of different wavelengths spanning the visible spectrum. This can occur naturally, such as sunlight, or artificially, such as light bulbs or LEDs designed to emit white light.
Why light get scatter when passed through a prism?
White light contains all the colors of a rainbow in the form of waves which have different wavelengths. So when light is passed through a prism, the waves appears to be scattered because some waves have less refraction and some waves have more refraction due to their wavelengths.
What are two ways of electromagnetic waves are different from each other?
Frequency: Electromagnetic waves differ in frequency, with radio waves having lower frequencies than visible light waves. Wavelength: Electromagnetic waves differ in wavelength, with gamma rays having shorter wavelengths than microwaves.

How are x-rays and earthquake waves similar?
They are both transverse waves, albeit having different wavelength and frequency. I think that velocity of the waves will also be different as x-rays travel at the speed of light.
How are ultraviolet waves different from light waves?
Ultraviolet waves are smaller than light waves.
Are there waves of light and sound?
Yes. Sound waves have different frequencies which cause them to be louder/softer/higher/lower.Light waves have different frequencies too. The shorter the distance between the wavelenghts the darker the color. White light (the normal light the sun gives) is all of the colors together

Do colour in visible white light have different wave lenghts and frequencies and how different are they?
yes- red has the longest waves while violet has the shortest.

What is the main difference between laser and ordinary white light?
The main difference is that laser light is coherent, meaning the light waves are aligned and moving in a single direction, while ordinary white light is non-coherent, with light waves traveling in random directions. Laser light is also monochromatic, meaning it consists of a single color, while white light contains a mixture of different colors.
How are light waves different than other waves?
Light waves are waves but behave like a particle. They are also mass less.
Which electromagnetic waves are produced by the sun?
Visible light because some of the energy that reaches the earth from the sun is visible light. The visible light from the sun is white light. White light is visible light of all wavelengths combined. Light from lamps in your home as well as from the fluorescent bulbs in your school is also white light.
