When light waves are refracted as sunlight passes through raindrops , their wavelengths are separated , and we see them as different . 3 . - A triangular piece of glass or plastic called a bends light and separates it into the wavelengths that make up white light . 4 . - Light passing through the slits of a is refracted , and the wavelengths that make up the light can be seen . 5 . - Sunlight striking an object may be refracted , reflected , or . 6 . - The light that is reflected by an object determines the of that object . How many kinds of light are there ? 7 . - Energy from the Sun travels in many types of waves , the contains the full range of these wavelengths . 8 . - The spectrum is arranged from long waves , with the amount of energy , to short waves with the amount of energy .
