Due to the different frequency of each colour, all components of white light get _____ at a different angle.
Due to the different frequency of each colour, all components of white light get _____ at a different angle.
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A refracted
The index of refraction of a medium depends upon the frequency of the wave refracted. Since, different colours have different frequencies and wavelengths.
Hence, the components of the white light refract at different angles depending upon their frequencies.
