उत्तर

Newton’s colour disc— It is a circular disc taken by Newton to demonstrate that the recombination of seven colours produces white light. A circular cardboard disc which is divided into seven sectors and they were painted with the seven colours of VIBGYOR. The disc when rotated at a very high speed appears WHITE.

Why do the component colours of incident white light split into a spectrum while passing through a glass prism, explain
How could you show that the colours of the spectrum combine to give white light?
Draw a labeled ray diagram to illustrate the dispersion of a narrow beam of white light when it passes through a glass prism.
If white light is used in same way what change is expected in the emergent beam?
An object AB is placed in front of a convex lens as shown in fig. 4. Complete the ray diagram and obtain the image formed and state the nature of the image.

In the figure, a beam of light consisting of three colours blue, red, and yellow is incident on a prism and on a rectangular glass block respectively. Complete the diagram by drawings of the refracted and emergent rays.

State the correct sequence (1-7) of colours in the spectrum formed by the prisms A and B, shown in the following figure.

Curved mirrors have surfaces that are spherical, cylindrical, parabolic, and ellipsoid.
The angle of deviation through a prism is minimum when

- Incident rays and emergent rays are symmetric to the prism.
- The refracted ray inside the prism becomes parallel to its base.
- The angle of incidence is equal to that of the angle of emergence.
- When the angle of emergence has doubled the angle of incidence.
