|
Answer» Answer: The COLOURS obtained when white light splits into 7 different colours due to dispersion through prism [ increasing order of deviation]: -->Red -->Orange -->Yellow -->Green -->BLUE -->Indigo --->Violet The seven different colours can be recombined in the following way to give white light : 1.A triangular prism is placed on its base and another similar prism is placed ALONG its side in inverted position on its vertex. so that the refracting surface is in the opposite direction.
