A large, spherical lamp emits light that changes color and intensity, as controlled by a hand interacting with a dial
MomentA large, spherical lamp emits light that changes color and intensity, as controlled by a hand interacting with a dial. Below the lamp, a series of glass prisms refract the light, displaying a spectrum. The colors range from yellow (6000K) to yellow-white (7500K), blue-white (20000K), blue (50000K), and finally red (3500K). The prism closest to the red light also shows a broader spectrum, with hints of orange and yellow. The experiment visually demonstrates the relationship between color temperature and the emitted light spectrum.
