Colour And The Optical Properties Of Materials:... May 2026

Different colors bend at different angles (like a prism creating a rainbow). 3. Scattering Light is deflected in many directions by small particles.

Color produced by the physical structure of the material rather than chemical pigments.

I can provide or mathematical formulas (like Snell's Law) if you'd like to go deeper!

Color is not an inherent property of an object, but rather a result of how it treats specific wavelengths of visible light.
