How does the deviation produced by a triangular prism depend on the colours (or wavelengths) of light incident on it?
In following figure shows a thin beam of white light from a source S striking on one face of a prism.

Complete the diagram to show effect of prism on the beam and to show what is seen on the screen.
In following diagram shows a thin beam of white light from a source S striking on one face of a prism.

A slit is placed in between the prism and the screen to pass only the light of green colour. What will you then observe on the screen?
In following diagram shows a thin beam of white light from a source S striking on one face of a prism.

What conclusion do you draw from the observation in part (b) above?
(i) Draw a diagram to show the splitting of white light by a prism into its constituent colour.
(ii) Draw another diagram to show how the colours of spectrum of white light can be combined
to give the effect of white light.
Write the approximate wavelengths for blue.
Draw another diagram to show how the colours of spectrum of white light can be combined to give the effect of white light.
Give a reason, why the violet colour of white light deviated most and red colour of white light deviated least.
Comment on the statement: ‘When any ray of white light is incident on a glass prism, it simply disperses it into its seven constituent colours.
The wavelengths for the light of red and blue colours are nearly 7·8 × 10-7 m and 4·8 × 10-7 m respectively.
Which colour has greater speed in glass?
