Answer:
Explanation:
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. The simplest way to explain dispersion is through dispersion in the prism.

- Rainbow is a natural example of dispersion of light.
- Because the light of different colours travels at different speed in different media.
- So, light of different colours bend through different angles.
