When white light is passed through a glass prism it splits into its spectrum of colours (in order violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red) and this process of white light splitting into its constituent colours is termed as dispersion.

Answer 2

Answer:

‘Dispersion of Light’ can be defined as the splitting of white light when it passes through a glass prism into its constituent spectrum of colors (i.e. violet, indigo , blue, green, yellow, orange and red). Dispersion figuratively means ‘distribution’ and hence that’s exactly what is happening in the picture above.
