Newton Color Disc
Product Code : JA-LOE-7908
The Newton Color Disc (SKU JA-LOE-7908) is a hand-driven demonstration apparatus showing that white light can be made up from all the spectral colours. A multi-coloured disc of 180 mm diameter is mounted on a metal stand and spun through a belt by turning a hand-driven wheel; at speed the separate colours merge and the disc appears nearly white. This Newton's colour disc with hand drive is manufactured in India by JaincoLab for school science and college physics laboratories.
Specifications
The apparatus consists of a 180 mm diameter multi-coloured disc on a metal stand, driven by a belt from a hand-driven wheel.

Applications of Newton's colour disc with hand drive
Newton's colour disc is used in light and colour lessons to show that the colours of the spectrum combine to give white, completing the dispersion demonstration in which a prism splits white light into those same colours.
- Showing that the spectral colours combine to give white light
- Following up prism dispersion practicals with recombination
- Introducing persistence of vision as the colours blend at speed
- Class demonstrations in middle-school chapters on light and colour
- Science fair and activity-room displays
