Answer:
Since different colors of light travel at different speeds, the refractive index is different for each color. As a result, when white light passes through the refracting surface of the prism, its components bend into different angles, causing the single beam of light to separate.

Answer :-
When passing through aprism, dispersion of light (white light) happens wherein it splits into it's seven constituent colours. Different colors of different wavelength experience different degree of deviation and hence when put through refraction,white light splits into its constituent colors.
