Newton's Color Disc Science Of Optics
3Newton's Color Disc Science Of Optics. The Newton disc, also known as the Disappearing Color Disc, is a well-known physics experiment with a rotating disc with segments in different colors (usually Newton's primary colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet or ROYGBIV) appearing as white (or off-white or gray) when it spins very fast.
This type of mix of light stimuli is called temporal optical mixing, a version of additive-averaging mixing. The concept that human visual perception cannot distinguish details of high-speed movements is popularly known as persistence of vision.
The disc is named after Isaac Newton. Although he published a circular diagram with segments for the primary colors that he had discovered, it is uncertain whether he actually ever used a spinning disc to demonstrate the principles of light.
Transparent variations for magic lantern projection have been produced.
