Why do the component colours of incident white light split into a spectrum while passing through a glass prism, explain
In the figure given alongside, a narrow beam of white light is shown to pass through a triangular glass prism. After passing through the prism, it produces a spectrum YX on the screen.
- State the colour seen
- at X, and
- at Y.
