Explanation
Correct answer is (a) Sir Issac Newton.
In 1666, during one of his optical experiments, Newton passed a beam of sunlight through a glass prism. The glass prism split the light into a band of seven colours on his wall. This phenomena is known as dispersion of light
He called this band of colours the ‘spectrum’. Thus the spectrum is a band of seven colours which is obtained by splitting of white light by a glass prism.
Explanation:
∙ From the mirror formula 1u+1v=1f; for a plane mirror R = ∞, hence f = ∞. Therefore, 1f=0
∙ The formula becomes 1u+1v=0 or 1u=−1v or -u=v
∙Thus, the image formed by a plane mirror is always virtual, inverted laterally, and erect.
∙It has a characteristic magnification of unity (∵vu=1); hence the image is of the same size as that of the object.
Answer:
Hence, the correct option is (D) all of the above
