How does the deviation produced by a triangular prism depend on the colours (or wavelengths) of light incident on it?

उत्तर
The deviation caused by a prism increases with the decrease in the wavelength of light incident on it.

In following diagram shows a thin beam of white light from a source S striking on one face of a prism.
