प्रश्न
When we place a glass prism in the path of a narrow beam of white light a spectrum is obtained. What happens when a second identical prism is placed in an inverted position with respect to the first prism? Draw a labelled ray diagram to illustrate it.
उत्तर
The first prism disperses white light into its seven constituent colours and forms the spectrum. The other inverted prism recombines all the seven colors and gives a white light.
