What piece of equipment do we use to split light?
A prism is typically used to split white light into its component colors through a process called dispersion. The unique angles and refractive properties of a prism cause different wavelengths of light to bend at different angles, separating them into the visible spectrum.
Do opaque objects reflect some light?
Yes. Depending on the object (let's use a banana) they reflect different light. Out of appearingly white light, there are colours. A banana appears yellow because it absorbs all other colours and reflects the yellow part of the light. This also means that is you put a plant in green light, it will die because it reflects green and needs the other lights for photosynthesis.
What is the difference between light color and pigment color?
Light is transmitted colour, it is called additive colour. Pigment is reflected colour. They have different primary colours. When the light is reflected from something, as in paint, the three primary colours are red, yellow, and blue but for transmitted light the primary colours are red, green, blue - RGB. Computer screens and televisions use RGB colour. Red + Green gives yellow; Red + Blue gives magenta and Green + Blue gives cyan.
What would you use to split white light into colors?
If white light is shined through a prism, it will be dispersed into colors.
How do you make an object's shadow bigger?
To make an object's shadow bigger, increase the distance between the object and the light source. The further away the light source is from the object, the larger and more diffuse the shadow will appear. Alternatively, you can use a larger light source or diffuse the light to create a softer, larger shadow.
How can we split up white light into the seven colours of the spectrum?
Use a prism.

How can you prove that white light is composed of several colours?
You may use a glass prism and shine a white light through it. You will notice that there is rainbow of colours on the wall.
What can you use to split white light into its componets light?
You can also use rain or raindrops and oil aside from a prism.
How is white light is made of colors?
By Dispersion Of light (We call the phenomenon of spiliting of white light into 7 colours as dispersion of light.).......... You Can use Prism.....

How can you use a inclined plane?
As a simple machine, it can be used to move an object or as a wedge to split something.
Can you use LED light for tennis courts?
No, because LED lights could distract by the colours.
Why is it best to use light colours in food preparation areas?
So you can see any spills
How is white light made-up of different colors?
By Dispersion Of light (We call the phenomenon of spiliting of white light into 7 colours as dispersion of light.).......... You Can use Prism.....
How do you xxplain the cause of dispersion?
When composite white light with seven colours as constituents enter into triangular prism, then different colours get refracted at different angles because of the different refractive index value of glass for different colours. Refractive index is defined as the ratio of the speed of light in free space to that in the glass medium. As the speed of the different colour differ, the refractive index varies. Hence they have different angle of refraction. So all the colours have been split up. As we use a triangular prism, as the refracted colours fall on the other face of the prism, once again separation becomes possible. Hence the phenomenon of dispersion. But this will not be possible when we use a rectangular glass slab. So triangular prism is essential to have dispersion.
