hey there...
here is ur answer
<> dispersion is simple terms means the light disperse in different directions.
<> we generally use the term as refraction for this.
<> sir Issac Newton had made an experiment on this very topic dispersion of light.
<> he had taken an prism. prism disperse that light. he allowed the white light to enter the room and that white light suprisingly disperses into seven colors. white is basically sunlight.
this we call it as spectrum. it disperse into seven colors the colors of the rainbow.
<> the red light bends less becoz of the high wave length it has. and the violet bends the most because it has very low wave length.
<> so we can basically conclude that dispersion happens because of the different wavelengths.
hope this helps!
