  2. The refracted ray inside the prism becomes parallel to its base.
  3. The angle of incidence is equal to that of the angle of emergence.
  4. When the angle of emergence has doubled the angle of incidence.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:


State True or False:

"Wavelength of red light is close to 700 nm.”

  1. Name the process shown in the figure.
  2. Name the colour that deviates the most.
  3. Name the colour that deviates the least.
  4. Name any one phenomenon in nature which is based on the above process.
  5. Define ‘spectrum’.
