To show that light is made up of colours through diffraction.
A prism is a 3d shape that is the same 2d shape all the way along. Many things are shaped as prisms. for example a glass triangular prism can be used to reflect or defract light in telescopes or to produce coloured light.

The term angle of deviation is used in referance to?
The term angle of deviation is used in reference to a prism.
How do you find the value of a rectangular prism?
The answer depends on the quality of the material used for the prism.
Can a second glass prism be used to recombine the spectral components?
Yes, a second glass prism can be used to recombine the spectral components that have been separated by the first prism. By carefully positioning the second prism, the dispersed light can be reversed and the original white light reconstituted. This process is known as prism recombination or prism recollection.

What tool can be used to refract light?
A prism
What is half of a rectangular prism?
The answer depends mainly on the plane which is used to divide the prism.The result can be a rectangular prism (or a cube), a trapezoidal prism, a triangular prism, but to get really exotic shapes the cutting plane needs to be not parallel to any of the faces or diagonals of the prism.
