How could you show that the colours of the spectrum combine to give white light?
The colour of white light which is deviated the maximum on passing through the glass prism is:
(a) blue
(b) indigo

How does the speed of light determine the optical density of a medium?
Explain briefly, with the help of a neat labelled diagram, how white light gets dispersed by a prism. On which surface of a prism, there is both dispersion and deviation of light, and on which surface of the prism, there is only deviation of light ?
What conclusion do you draw about the nature of white light in part (b)?
Differentiate between a glass slab and a glass prism.
Distinguish between an impure spectrum and a pure spectrum.
