shows a ray of white light incident on a glass prism. glass prism red light red light white light is not complete; it shows only the ray of red light produced from the white light. On , draw the ray of blue light produced in, and beyond, the prism. State two colours of the spectrum found between the red and blue rays. shows the same prism with the ray of white light incident at a different angle. white light white light Q is complete; no spectrum is produced. Explain why no light emerges from the prism at Q. Explain why no spectrum is produced.
