Question

What happen to a beam of white light when it gets refracted through a glass prism

Answer 1

Answer:

White light refracts when it passes through a prism. Each wavelength refracts at a different angle, and the emergent light forms a rainbow

Explanation:

Shine a light through a prism, or hang one in the window on a sunny day, and you'll see a rainbow. It's the same rainbow you see in the sky because, on a day with a mixture of rain and sun, each raindrop acts as a miniature prism. For physicists debating whether light is a wave or particle, this phenomenon is a strong argument for the former. In fact, experiments with prisms were central to Issac Newton's formulation of the theory of optics and the wave nature of light.
