Answer:

Dispersion of white light by a prism

Step-by-step explanation:

When white light is passed through a prism, the white light separates into its component wavelengths which are:

Red

Orange

Yellow

Green

Blue

Indigo

Violet

Together, all of these wavelengths constitute the spectrum of white light.

Hence, the dispersion of white light shows that each color of visible light has a specific wavelength.
