When light enters the prism it splits into seven different colors.
Why does light get separated in the prism?
- The difference in light speed that occurs when white light strikes the prism's surface causes refraction of the light.
- A refraction will happen to the light. Seven different colors will be separated from the white light.
- As the light ray moves from the rarer to the denser medium, it bends toward the normal.
- While moving from a denser media to a rarer medium, the light ray deviates from the usual.
- The angles and plane faces of a prism cause light to be bent, or refracted when it flows through them; the amount of refractive distortion varies slightly depending on the wavelength of light.
