Which one of the following is responsible for the working of Newton's colour disc experiment ?

A Formation of pure spectra
B Formation of impure spectra
C Persistence of vision
D Principle of complementary colour

Correct Answer: Persistence of vision

A Newton Disc can be created by painting a disc with the seven different colours. A combination of red, green and blue in the circular disc will yield the same result. This is due to the phenomenon called persistence of vision.
