refraction of light through prism

The phenomenon observed in the figure is called dispersion.
- Dispersion is a phenomena that occurs when white light separates into its distinct colours.
- The phenomenon known as scattering causes the light beams to veer off course and travel in a new direction.
- Although dispersion occurs in all media, the medium has an impact on how the split parts of light are separated.
- As white light travels through a glass prism, its individual colors—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet—move through the prism at various speeds because refractive index is color-dependent.
- Light dispersion results from this.
- Chromatic, modal, and material kinds of light dispersion exist.
- They take place when refraction and Snell's law lead white light to be divided into its various colour components.
