A student is observing a diagram showing the path of a ray of light passing through a glass prism. He would find that for all angles of incidence the ray of light bends:


Draw a ray diagram to show the dispersion of white light.


State the cause of dispersion of white light


In the figure given alongside, a narrow beam of white light is shown to pass through a triangular glass prism. After passing through the prism, it produces a spectrum YX on the screen. 

Why do different colours of white light bend through different angles with respect to the incident beam of light?

Define the term dispersion of light.


A ray of white light is passed through a glass prism and a spectrum is obtained on a screen.

Draw a labeled ray diagram to illustrate the dispersion of a narrow beam of white light when it passes through a glass prism.


Assertion: We can see the rainbow in the sky when the rain starts falling after a spell of bright sunlight.
Reason: The rainbow is formed due to the dispersion of light.


______ colour is deviated the least in the spectrum of white light obtained with a glass prism.
