Blue

Violet

Indigo

Red

- During the dispersion of white light by a glass prism, different colors of light bend by different amounts.

- This bending, called refraction, occurs because different colors have different wavelengths.

- Shorter wavelengths bend more than longer ones.

- Option 1: Blue - Blue light bends significantly, but not the most.

- Option 2: Violet - Violet light has the shortest wavelength in the visible spectrum, so it bends the most.

- Option 3: Indigo - Indigo bends more than blue but less than violet.

- Option 4: Red - Red light has the longest wavelength, so it bends the least.

- Correct Answer: Option 2: Violet - Violet light bends the most in the spectrum.
