Question

Which of the following shows the correct order of colors of the spectrum generated by a prism when white light passes through it? 

  1. VIBGYOR
  2. VIBGORY
  3. ROYGBIV
  4. VIGBRYO

hintHint:

Prism splits white light on the basis of speed of the constituent colors of light

The correct answer is: VIBGYOR


    When white light is incident on prism the light splits according to the speed and since speed of violet light is least and that of red is most, the order of dispersion of light is VIBGYOR
