Prism - 50mm 60 x 60 x 60 Degrees

This Equilateral Glass Prism (50mm, 60 ° x 60 ° x 60 °) is a classroom essential for visualising the behaviour of light. Its precisely angled sides allow for clear dispersion of white light into its spectral components, making it ideal for experiments on refraction, wavelength, and the visible spectrum. The highly polished glass surface ensures minimal light loss and excellent clarity.

Suitable for physics and general science lessons, this prism can be used in both student activities and teacher demonstrations.

Educational Benefits:

• Demonstrates light dispersion and spectrum formation
• Reinforces wavelength, angle, and refraction concepts
• Encourages hands-on scientific exploration
• Introduces geometric optics in an engaging way
