Question
prisms separate _______ light, such as that from the sun, by wavelength. which best completes the statement? ultraviolet white infrared black
White light is a combination of different wavelengths of light. When white light passes through a prism, it gets separated into its component colors (which have different wavelengths) due to refraction. Ultraviolet and infrared are parts of the electromagnetic spectrum but not the type of light that is typically separated by a prism in the common sense shown here. Black is not a type of light but rather the absence of light.
