- Homework Statement
- Why don't the individual colours of the spectrum rejoin to form white light on exit from a prism?
- Relevant Equations
- n/a
I don't really have any idea. I know that shorter wavelengths refract more on entry to prism; e.g. ultra-violet refracts more than infra-red, but I don't know why they don't join up again when speeding up on exit from the prism.
