Classroom Activity: Making a Rainbow . ... When white light from the Sun or a light bulb passes through a prism, the light splits into its component wavelengths. ... Red, blue, green colored filters - if possible, cut 1x4-inch pieces of the filters for each student . ... Many students have the misconception that filters somehow dye the light a certain color. ... Younger students can draw the rainbow and make up a mnemonic for remembering the order of the colors (such as, ROY G. BIV). ...

The black hole. ... The black holes are generated in the result of a collapse of giant stars with the mass more than three Sun's masses. ... And moreover the gas near the neutron star or the black hole will get hot and will become a source of high energetic electromagnetic radiation in X-rays and gamma range. ... In the majority of double systems, being the sources of X-rays radiation, the invisible component mass does not exceed the two solar masses, so it is a neutron star. ...
