Which colour of light in a prism has the shortest wavelength? Explain
your answer.( 38 points )​

☁️ Answer ☁️

Violet

Explanation:

1. As the full spectrum of visible light travels through a prism, the wavelengths separate into the colors of the rainbow because each color is a different wavelength. Violet has the shortest wavelength, at around 380 nanometers, and red has the longest wavelength, at around 700 nanometers.

2. Isaac Newton's experiment in 1665 showed that a prism bends visible light andthat each color refracts at a slightly different angle depending on the wavelength of the color.

Hope it helps.
