- In a light source containing many wavelengths, the smaller wavelengths are relatively scattered more
- In a light source containing many wavelengths, the larger wavelengths are relatively scattered more
- All the wavelengths are scattered equally
- In a light source containing many wavelengths, the wavelengths wavelengths in the middle are relatively scattered more
