The separation of white light into its component colors is
a. reflectionb. refractionc. dispersiond. transmission

The dispersion of light occurs when a beam of white light (which is compound of many wavelengths or "colors") is refracted (the different rays of light are diverted depending on their wavelengths) in some medium, leaving their constituent colors separated.

The best known case is when a beam of white light from the sun passes through a prism, thus obtaining rays of different colors like those of the rainbow.

This phenomenom was named by Isaac Newton in the  eighteenth century, who performed the experiment explained above.

Hence, the correct option is C.

answer: i don't know the answer good luck

explanation:

increasing transnational kinetic energy. because the transnational kinetic energy formula consists of only two variables, mass and velocity, increasing one of those properties is the only way to increase an object's transnational kinetic energy. increases to mass and velocity, however, do not have the same impact.
