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.
State the colour seen (i) at X, and (ii) at Y.

उत्तर
(i)The colour seen at X is violet (as it is the maximum deviated).
(ii) The colour seen at Y is red (as it is the least deviated).
