Welcome to the comprehensive course material on the captivating topic of Light in Physics. Light, a fundamental entity in physics, plays a crucial role in our understanding of the world around us. This course will delve into various aspects of light, starting from the dispersion of light and colors to exploring the electromagnetic spectrum and its diverse applications.

One of the key aspects we will cover is the dispersion of white light by a triangular prism. This phenomenon, famously demonstrated by Sir Isaac Newton, reveals the fundamental nature of light as a spectrum of colors. Through this process, we will understand how white light splits into its constituent colors, showcasing the beautiful rainbow of hues that form the pure spectrum.

Furthermore, we will examine colour mixing by addition and subtraction, a concept that elucidates how primary colors combine to form secondary colors. By understanding this process, we can appreciate the richness of the color palette and how different hues interact to create a vibrant visual world.

As we progress, we will explore the significance of colors in objects and the role of color filters in manipulating the light spectrum. Understanding why objects exhibit specific colors and how certain filters alter the perceived colors is essential in various fields, from art and design to scientific applications.

Delving deeper into the realm of light, we will uncover the mesmerizing phenomenon of a rainbow. By understanding the formation of rainbows, we can unravel the intricate interplay between light, water droplets, and the dispersion of colors in nature's grand display of optical beauty.

Transitioning to the electromagnetic spectrum, we will delve into the vast range of electromagnetic radiation that encompasses radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. Each segment of the spectrum holds unique properties, sources, and utilizations that are integral to numerous technological advancements and scientific explorations.

Throughout this course, we will aim to identify primary colors, derive secondary colors through mixing, decipher the origins of object colors, analyze colors with filters, comprehend the formation of rainbows, and explore the electromagnetic spectrum in detail. By the end of this course, you will have a profound understanding of light's properties, behavior, and its multifaceted role in the physical world.
