These colors are often observed as light passes through a triangular prism. Upon passage through the prism, the white light is separated into its component colors - red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. The separation of visible light into its different colors is known as dispersion.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Dispersion of Light

• When sunlight (white light) strikes water droplets suspended in air, it refracts and spreads into its constituent colors through dispersion. When sunlight touches a water droplet (at some particular angle) the light gets refracted and dispersed

• This mixture can be split into different colours using a transparent block called a prism. ... This means that a beam of white light going into a prism comes out as a spectrum of different colours. Rainbows appear when raindrops in the air act like a prism, splitting sunlight into different colours.

• The spreading of white light into its full spectrum of wavelengths is called dispersion. Rainbows are produced by a combination of refraction and reflection and involve the dispersion of sunlight into a continuous distribution of colors.
