Make two diagrams to explain refraction and dispersion.

उत्तर
When we see a pool of water. The pool appears less deep as it is. This is due to the refraction of light.
When white light is allowed to pass through the glass prism. It splits into seven colour this is called dispersion of light.

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.
