Detailed Solution

Isaac Newton was the first to use a glass prism to obtain the spectrum of sunlight.
In 1665 Isaac Newton took a prism and allowed white light to pass through it. When a ray of light passes through the prism, it bends closer to its base. He discovered that if a beam of white light passes through a glass prism, it will split into seven colours.
