What kind of device can you use to to separate visible light into its different colors

Asailboat is traveling to the right when a gust of wind causes the boat to accelerate leftward at 2.5m/s2 for 4s. after the wind stops, the sailboat is traveling to the left with a velocity of 3.0m/s.assuming the acceleration from the wind is constant, what was the initial velocity of the sailboat before the gust of wind? answer using a coordinate system where rightward is positive.

Ablue car pulls away from a red stop-light just after it has turned green with a constant acceleration of 0.5 m/s 2 . a green car arrives at the position of the stop-light 6.5 s after the light had turned green. if t = 0 when the light turns green, at what time does the green car catch the blue car if the green car maintains the slowest constant speed necessary to catch up to the blue car? answer in units of s.

Consider a u-tube whose arms are open to the atmosphere. now equal volumes of water and light oil (ρ = 49.3 lbm/ft3) are poured from different arms. a person blows from the oil side of the u-tube until the contact surface of the two fluids moves to the bottom of the u-tube, and therefore, the liquid levels in the two arms are the same. if the fluid height in each arm is 30 in, determine the gage pressure exerted by the person on the oil by blowing.
