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.

In figure AO is the ray of white light falling on a prism PQR. Complete the diagram till the light emerges out from the prism and falls on the screen.

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.
