Draw a ray diagram to show the dispersion of white light.
How could you show that the colours of the spectrum combine to give white light?
The colour of white light which suffers the maximum bending (or maximum refraction) on passing through a glass prism is:
(a) yellow
(b) orange
(c) red

A ray of white light is passed through a glass prism and a spectrum is obtained on a screen.
- Name the seven colours of the spectrum in order.
- Do the colours have the same width in the spectrum?
- Which of the colour of the spectrum of white light deviates (i) the most, (ii) the least?
A glass prism is able to produce the spectrum when white light passes through it, but a glass slab doesn’t produce any spectrum. Explain why it is so.
State two properties of ultraviolet radiation which differ from visible light.
