Newton Disc:

Newton suggested a process of mixing different colors to make white color by setting an arrangement as shown figure below. Newton Disc is a card board disc with seven equal sectorscolored red, yellow, orange, green, blue, indigo and violet. When the disc turned quickly, the retina receives the sensation of the spectrum simultaneously and disc appears white. Using this disc, one can explain that white is a combination of VIBGYOR


 

ACTIVITY 10

You need Gelatin papers of Red, Blue and Yellow. Fold each gelatin paper three times and look different color objects listed below through each folded paper. Observe what color each object has. Write your observations in the table.


We know that white shirt will reflect white light and we have seen that white light consists

of different colours. When we look at the white shirt through the yellow gelatin paper, we see it as yellow in color. From this, we can say that the yellow gelatin paper did not allow any other color except yellow to pass through. Similarly, we conclude that red gelatin paper allows only red light and blue gelatin paper allows only the blue light.
