What happens to colors in sunlight when droplets of water in the atmosphere act like prisms?

a. dispersion
b. polarization
c. absorption
d. interference

The correct answer is Option A.

Explanation:

Dispersion is defined as the splitting of white light into seven colors of the rainbow which is VIBGYOR.

As, we know sunlight is the white light and when it passes through droplets of water, the light splits into seven colors and hence, the droplets of water acts like prisms.

Polarization is defined as the property of a certain electromagnetic radiation which relate the direction and magnitude of vibrating electric field.

Absorption is defined as the process in which one substance gets soaked up on the other substance.

Interference is defined as the process in which waves of the same frequency combines to support or cancel each other resulting in the summation of the amplitudes of the two waves.

Hence, the correct answer is option A.
