wavelengths as it passes through a triangular prism Which color
written here in terms of frequency will deviate most from
the original path of light And here the potential answers
a lot of prisons Well they let us turn regular
old white light into a rainbow whenever we want It
always amazes us that white light actually contains all of
those colors and we know we're easily entertained But hey
we're a cheap date bias a slim jim and make
a pretty rainbow and we're happy for however long it
takes us to eat that slim jim a prison works
because light slows down is it passes through the glass
and the angle of the prism makes the light bends
But the amount of ben varies depending on the frequency
and the wavelength of the light Well a higher frequency
means the index of refraction is also higher so there's
more bend in the angle so answer a has the
highest frequency so it would have the most deviation and
it would also be the correct answer Seven hundred terror
hurts is the frequency of violent light by the way
and five hundred twenty terror hurts produces yellow light Working
our way down to the are in roy g biv
There we go Red light has a frequency of four
hundred twenty Terror hurts give or take But remember if
you play around with prisms a lot short little irish
guys might start showing up and unless you have a
pot of gold line around well they might not be 00:01:45.572 --> [endTime] very happy with you What
