Refraction is when light bends through an object. White light is made up of all the colors of the spectrum. Different colors have different wavelengths, therefore they bend at different angles. So when white light passes through a prism the different colors bend at different angles, so they separate to produce the rainbow of light that we see.

What are the 6 shapes which are prisms?
The six common shapes that are classified as prisms include rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, pentagonal prisms, hexagonal prisms, octagonal prisms, and rhombic prisms. A prism is characterized by having two parallel, congruent bases connected by rectangular lateral faces. Each type of prism is named after the shape of its base.
What are some names of prisms?
Prisms are named based on the shape of their bases. Common types include triangular prisms, rectangular prisms, and hexagonal prisms. Additionally, there are specialized prisms like pentagonal prisms and octagonal prisms, reflecting the number of sides in their base shapes. Each type retains the characteristic of having two parallel, congruent bases connected by rectangular lateral faces.

How are prisms named?
Prisms consist of two polygonal "bases" and rectangular faces joining them. Prisms are named after the polygonal bases.
What objects have two parallelcongurent bases?
Prisms have two parallel and congruent bases. These bases are connected by rectangular or parallelogram-shaped sides, creating a three-dimensional shape. Examples of prisms include rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, and hexagonal prisms.
How do light refracting prisms work to separate white light into its component colors?
Light refracting prisms work by bending different colors of light at different angles as they pass through the prism. This causes the white light to separate into its component colors, creating a rainbow effect.
