Fill in the blank: The deviation of light in a prism increases with the decrease in the ___ of light. |
Card: 3 / 30 |
The total angle of deviation δ produced by a triangular prism is determined by which three factors? |
Card: 5 / 30 |
The angle of incidence at the first surface, the angle of the prism (A), and the refractive index of the material of the prism (μ). |
Card: 6 / 30 |
Riddle: I bend light and create colors bright, through me red will bend less than violet's flight. What am I? |
Card: 7 / 30 |
What is the phenomenon called when white light is split into its constituent colors by a prism? |
Card: 9 / 30 |
Fill in the blank: The order of colors in the spectrum produced by a prism can be remembered as ___. |
Card: 11 / 30 |
What role does the second surface of the prism play in the dispersion of light? |
Card: 13 / 30 |
Only refraction occurs at the second surface, causing different colors to be deviated through different angles, further separating them. |

The first prism disperses white light into its colors, and the second prism recombines these colors to reproduce white light. |
Card: 16 / 30 |
Fill in the blank: The colors in the spectrum are arranged as Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, and ___. |
Card: 17 / 30 |
The change in speed of light with wavelength (or frequency) causes different colors to be deviated at different angles. |
Card: 20 / 30 |
The visible spectrum is located between which two colors in the electromagnetic spectrum? |
Card: 21 / 30 |
True or False: Electromagnetic waves require a material medium for their propagation. |
Card: 23 / 30 |
![]() False. Electromagnetic waves do not require any material medium for their propagation. |
Card: 24 / 30 |
