9. A beam of light consists of yellow and blue light. The beam of light is incident on a glass prism.
Which diagram is correct?

10. What happens when white light passes through a red filter and the light that emerges is then
passed through a green filter?
A. The light that is detected by the eye will appear to be green as the filter will transmit green
light only.
B. The light that is detected by the eye will appear to be red as the filters will transmit red light
only.
C. There will no light transmitted as the red filter transmits red and the green filter will absorb the
red light.
D. White light will be transmitted.
