spectrum is produced by the deviation of different colour by the means of refraction. When white light trevels from air into hollow prism (contains air) so there is no change of medium ,therefore no referaction and spectrum takes place.......

When a light beam passes through a hollow prism, it does not refract as it would in a solid prism. Since refraction is essential for the dispersion of light into a spectrum, the absence of refraction in a hollow prism results in no spectrum being produced.

What gives opals their color?

Opals get their color from the diffraction of light as it passes through microscopic silica spheres within the stone. These spheres diffract light into a spectrum of colors known as play-of-color, giving opals their distinctive iridescence.

Why is the solar spectrum an absorption spectrum rather than an emission spectrum?

The solar spectrum appears as an absorption spectrum because the outer layers of the Sun absorb certain wavelengths of light due to the elements present in its atmosphere. When this absorbed light passes through the outer layers, it creates dark absorption lines in the spectrum. These lines correspond to the specific wavelengths of light that were absorbed.

What layer of the sun is responsible for the absorption of lines in the solar spectrum?

Light coming up from the centre of the Sun goes through the outer layer where it encounters absorbtion by elements in the outer layer, and this gives rise to absorbtion lines in the spectrum.

When Ax plus By equals C passes through the origin will C equal 0 on the graph?

Yes Ax + By = C As the line passes through the origin then x = 0 when y = 0. Substituting gives, 0 + 0 = C therefore C = 0.
