Combination, kinds
2. Which of the following wavelengths of light scatters the most?
470 nm
400 nm
630 nm
550 nm
3. Which of the following explains why the dispersion of light occurs?
I. The constituent colors have varying angle of refraction
II. The different colors travel at different speeds in a medium
III. The constituent colors have varying wavelengths
I and 2 only
3 only
2 and 3 only
1, 2, and 3
4. Which statement/s best describes the relationship between ROYGBIV and the angle of refraction?
- They are directly proportional–the longer their wavelength, the greater the angle of refraction
- They are inversely proportional–the smaller the wavelength the greater the angle of refraction
- The angle of refraction does not depend on the color at all
- The angle of refraction increases from red to violet

5. How are spectral lines used to determine the composition of stars and other astronomical bodies?
Spectral lines are markers of molecules and compounds
Spectral lines are associated with specific atoms
Spectral lines are used to analyze the physical properties of astronomical objects
Spectral lines are interferences by cosmic rays and are not used at all
