Question

how is the refractive index of prism realted to the wavelength of light​

Answer 1

$\huge\bigstar\underline\mathfrak{Answer:-}$

• The refractive index is the ratio of the velocity of light through the vacuum to the velocity of light through the medium. The refractive index is related to the wavelength by substituting the velocity formula. So the light with higher wavelength disperses more than light with lower wavelength.
