    The document discusses various applications of diffraction using a spectrometer. It mentions that closely spaced tracks on CDs and DVDs act as a diffraction grating to form rainbow patterns when viewing discs. Additionally, it lists holograms, the red appearance of the sun during sunset, shadows of objects, light bending at corners, the use of spectrometers, x-ray diffraction, and separating white light as other applications of diffraction.

    Applications of diffraction using spectrometer

    the closely spaced tracks on a CD or DVD act as a


    diffraction grating to form the familiar rainbow pattern
    seen when looking at a disc.
    1. CD reflecting rainbow colours
    2. Holograms
    3. Sun appears red during sunset
    4. From the shadow of an object
    5. Bending of light at the corners of the door
    6. Spectrometer
    7. X-ray diffraction
    8. To separate white light
