The blue and purple are bended the most
red is bent the most violet the least
Violet
One device that splits white light into the colors of the visible spectrum is called a prism. It is a triangular piece of glass through which a narrow band of white light can pass. The blue color light is bent most, and the red color light bent the least. So the colors in-between red and blue are seen on a screen as a spectrum. A rainbow is produced when drops of water in the sky have light passing into them, and the light is bent in a similar way, producing the spectrum. So there are many devices that can produce a spectrum of the colors.

Type your answer here... OK. White light is made of the colours of the spectrum (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet - these are the same as the colours of the rainbow). The reason you see these colours instead of wwhite when you shine white light through a prism is that the prism "bends" the light - which splits it into the colours of the spectrum. Red light is the longest, so it is bent the least, and Violet is the shortest - so it is bent the most. This is also how rainbows are made - the rain droplets act as prisms to disperse (split) the light into the colours of the spectrum.

Blue bends best. The blue/violet end of the spectrum is bent the most, i.e. has the highest refractive index. Thus the lowest index is for red.
Red bends the least. If you look at a prism with a beam of light shining through it, you will see violet is bent the most. This due to the refractive index of the glass changing the wavelength. Velocity & frequency are components of wavelength. So the refractive index is a ratio by which the speed of light is changed. I am not sure if frequency is changed.
