Does a raindrop act like a prism of a rainbow?
Yes
How do you find the volume of a similar prism with only the scale factor and volume of the other prism?
The ratio of the volumes of similar solids is (the ratio of their linear dimensions)3 .
How are the bases of a cylinder and a prism similar?
The cylinder and the prisms bases are similar because its a flat surface.
What is one way that a triangular prism and a rectangular prism are similar?
They both have sides that are rectangular in shape. They both have a constant cross-sectional shape equal to the shape of the ends (triangle for a triangular prism; rectangle for a rectangular prism).
Why is a rectangular prism net similar to a cylinder net?
Because a rectangular prism has straight edges whereas a a cylinder has curved edges.
Does a raindrop act like a prism of a rainbow?
Yes
How will you compare prism to raindrops?
Light is refracted and reflected by a (glass) prism Light is refracted and reflected by a raindrop
How is a prism like a raindrop?
Raindrops are the cause of Rainbows. Light from the sun passes through the "front" of the raindrop. It hits the "back" of the raindrop which, because raindrops are spherical, acts like a curved mirror. At different points along this curve, the "beam" of incoming light is bent at slightly different angles depending on where it hits. This causes the "white" beam of light to spread out into its rainbow colours in a similar fashion to what you would see using a prism.
Is prism similar to each other?
Yes, a prism is similar to each other.
Why when a white light hits a raindrop does it split into seven colors of the rainbow?
This phenomenon is known as dispersion, where the different colors of light in white light have different wavelengths and therefore different speeds in the raindrop. This causes the light to refract and disperse into its component colors, creating the rainbow effect. The different colors are separated based on their different angles of refraction within the raindrop.
What is the break up of white light into seven colours?
It is the refraction of white light being shone through a glass prism, or a raindrop, that separates the white light into the colours of the rainbow.
What is the duration of The Raindrop?
The duration of The Raindrop is 1.8 hours.
How do you find the volume of a similar prism with only the scale factor and volume of the other prism?
The ratio of the volumes of similar solids is (the ratio of their linear dimensions)3 .
Is Prism and Pyramid similar?
They are similar in the sense that they both have bases. However, they are not similar in many other ways.
What is at the center of every raindrop?
At the center of every raindrop is a tiny speck of dust or dirt that serves as a nucleation site for water vapor to condense around. This process forms a droplet that eventually grows heavy enough to fall to the ground as rain.
When was Master Raindrop created?
Master Raindrop was created in 2008.
When was The Raindrop created?
The Raindrop was created on 2000-02-04.
