Answer:

Wavelengths of the "visible spectrum" combine to form what we refer to as the white light.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • When the spectrum of the visible light combine, they form a colorless light. This colorless light is referred to as 'white light'.
  • The 'white light' is actually a fusion of all the "wavelengths" in the "visible spectrum" of the whole electromagnetic spectrum.
  • The light appears white because the wavelengths that make this light are blended in such a manner that they need to be split with a prismatic device to observe the light bands.

b) White light

Also known as visible light consist of a spectrum of different waves. Technically, white is not a color or a wavelength characterized by a white color. Rather, White light is a combination of many colors of the visible spectrum. It shows the full spectrum of electromagnetic spectrum.
