Q

Sunlight spectra obtained

A

Sunlight composed of a continuum of frequencies and hence wavelength of light.
The grating will provide multiple sources.
Each wavelength will have a different path difference for maxima to be produced.
Short wave violet will have a smaller path difference than longer wavelength red so. a spread of colours will be produced.
