प्रश्न
State the colour which bends:
- The most.
- The least while passing through a glass prism.
उत्तर
- Violet is the colour that bends the most when white light travels through a glass prism because it has the shortest wavelength and is refracted the most.
- Red, on the other hand, is the colour that bends the least because it has the longest wavelength and experiences the least amount of refractive error. Indigo, blue, green, yellow, and orange are the other colours of the spectrum, which are indicated in order of increasing wavelength.

Fill in the blank with suitable word:

Draw a diagram to show the refraction of light through a glass prism. On this diagram, mark
(i) incident ray
(ii) emergent ray, and
(iii) angle of deviation.
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.
