图片说明
This photograph shows a prism splitting a beam of white light into its component colors — a beautiful demonstration of optics, the branch of physics that studies how light behaves and interacts with materials. When white light enters the prism, different wavelengths (colors) bend by different amounts because of a process called refraction. This separation of colors produces a spectrum — similar to a rainbow — revealing that white light is actually made up of many colors combined going from blue, through green and yellow to red.
Understanding optics helps scientists and engineers design lenses, microscopes, telescopes, cameras, and many other tools that shape and control light for practical use. The way the prism disperses light into a spectrum is the same principle that makes rainbows form in the sky when sunlight passes through raindrops.
