Correct Answer: Violet


Solution : The correct option is violet.

White light contains all the colors of the visible light. When it passes through a prism, it separates into different colors because each color bends by a different amount. The color that bends the most is violet, which has the shortest wavelength. This means violet light deviates the most from its original path after passing through a prism.
