HEY MATE I THINK IT IS HELPFUL TO YOU

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is (B) Speed of light.

Explanation:

• Light is made up of 7 different colors.
• Each of these colors has a different wavelength.
• They get deviated from their path by different angles due to the difference in their velocities in a prism.
• The red color has the longest wavelength and it deviates the least.
• Violet has the shortest wavelength so it deviates the most.

Conclusion:

Dispersion of light in a prism is due to a change in the speed of light.
