State the cause of dispersion of white light passing through a glass prism. How did Newton show that white light of sun contains seven colours using two identical glass prisms. Draw a ray diagram to show the path of light when two identical glass prisms are arranged together in inverted position with respect to each other and a narrow beam of white light is allowed to fall obliquely on one of the focus of the first prism.
As light rays pass from air into a glass prism, are they refracted towards or away from the normal?
What will happen if another similar glass prism is placed upside down behind the first prism?
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.
Why do different colours of white light bend through different angles with respect to the incident beam of light?
Describe how you could demonstrate that white light is composed of a number of colours.
How could you show that the colours of the spectrum combine to give white light?
A beam of white light is shone onto a glass prism. The light cannot be:
(a) deviated
(b) dispersed
(c) focused
(d) refracted
The colour of white light which is deviated the maximum on passing through the glass prism is:
(a) blue
(b) indigo
(c) red
(d) orange
Which of the following colour of white light has the least wavelength?
(a) red
(b) orange
(c) violet
(d) blue
The splitting of white light into its constituent colours is called .............
Out of air and glass, which is optically rarer? Give reason.
Explain the cause of dispersion of white light through a prism.
The diagram below shows the path taken by a narrow beam of yellow monochromatic light passing through an equiangular glass prism. If the yellow light is replaced by a narrow beam of white light incident at the same angle, draw another diagram to show the passage of white light through the prism and label it to show the effect of prism on the white light.
In the spectrum of white light by a prism, the colour at the extreme end opposite to the base of prism is ______.
Refer to fig
(i) Name the lens L.
(ii) What are the points O, O' called?
(iii) Complete the diagram to form the image of the object AB.
(iv) Write three characteristics of the image.
A wave has wavelength 50Å of State the speed in vacuum.
The splitting of white light in to seven colors is called ______.
Say TRUE or FALSE
After passing through a prism, white light splits into a band of seven colours
Assertion: We can see the rainbow in the sky when the rain starts falling after a spell of bright sunlight.
Reason: The rainbow is formed due to the dispersion of light.
A ray of light is incident at 45° on an equilateral prism in the diagram below.
