which wave phenomenon is best demonstrated in the diagram below? white light prism red orange yellow green…

Brief Explanations:

When white light passes through a prism, it undergoes refraction. Refraction is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another (in this case, from air into the prism and then out of the prism back into air). Different - colored light has different wavelengths and thus bends by different amounts, causing the white light to disperse into its component colors. Diffraction is the bending of light around obstacles. Interference is the interaction of two or more waves. Reflection is the bouncing back of light from a surface.

Answer:

C. Refraction
