Post boxes are different colors to distinguish between different types of mail services. In the UK, for example, red post boxes are for standard mail, while gold post boxes are used to commemorate Olympic gold medal wins. In other countries, post boxes might be different colors to represent specific postal services or to blend in with the surroundings.

Why are number plates different colours?
Number plates are different colours to indicate different types of vehicles or vehicle registrations in different countries. For example, in some countries, certain colours may be used for private vehicles, while others are used for commercial vehicles or government vehicles. This helps law enforcement and other officials quickly identify and categorize vehicles on the road.
Why do waves disperse?
It is mainly due to the different wavelength of colours. The refractive index of the material changes according to the change in wavelength. So the deviations will be different for different colours. Hence dispersion.
What explains why a prism separate white light into the colors of the rainbow?
Different colours travel at different velocity in a glass medium. Refractive index is defined as the ratio of the velocity of light in free space to that in medium. So refractive index becomes different for different colours. Now by Snell's law the refractive index is inversely proportional to the angle of refraction. Hence different colours get deviated at different angle of refraction. So the splitting of composite white light into its constituent colours has become possible. If these again fall at a parallel surface as in the case of a glass slab the colours split would get combined back and emerge as white light. But we have prism where the two refracting surfaces are at inclined and further splitting takes place and hence dispersion.
What object can be used to split light into colours?
A prism is an object that can be used to split white light into its different colors by refracting the light at different angles due to their different wavelengths.
Why does a prism cause white light to separate into the spectrum?
A prism causes white light to separate into a spectrum because light of different wavelengths (colors) travels at different speeds inside the prism. This difference in speed causes the light to refract at different angles, resulting in the separation of the colors of the spectrum.
