Product Description

What is more classic in Science than a Bunsen Burner?  . . . A prism producing a rainbow spectrum! 

An equilateral prism has three sides of equal length and refracts a light ray twice as it passes through the prism.  Our high quality prism is made from optical glass that makes the tedious task of demonstrating the formation of a spectrum somewhat easier.

If you want to produce a larger spectrum then use a diffraction grating and OHP.

Size: 50 mm height with equilateral sides of 30 mm
Teach: light, refraction, light spectrum, optical density, internal reflection
Age: 10+ (due to fragile nature of glass)
