प्रश्न

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.

  1. State the colour seen
    1. at X, and
    2. at Y.
  2. Why do different colours of white light bend through different angles with respect to the incident beam of light?

उत्तर

    1. The colour seen at X is violet (as it is the most deviated).
    2. The colour seen at Y is red (as it is the least deviated).
  1. Different colours of white light bend at different angles with respect to the incident beam of light. This is because different colours have different wavelengths.

Make a rainbow

Try to make your own rainbow. You can try this project in the morning or in the evening. Stand with your back towards the Sun. Take a hosepipe or a water pipe used in the garden. Make a fine spray in front of you. You can see different colours of rainbow in the spray.
