Violet. In dispersion of white light, red comes first as it has the smallest angle of refraction, then Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and finally Violet, with the largest angle of refraction.

What is it called when light bends as it passes through a material?
refracted light
Which light is deviated most and which light deviated least when a ray of white light passes through a prism?
Red is refracted most and violet is refracted the least when white light passes through a prism.
What happens when light is refracted through water from air?
The light will bend as it passes through.
Why does the stick appear to be broken?
Light is refracted as it passes through the water.
Why is a spectrum of colors not obtained when light passes through a glass slab?
The light has to pass through in a way that the colors are separated and refracted, but if they pass through glass and are not refracted in a certain way they will not separate the spectrum
When is light not refracted?
Light is not refracted when while it passes through a vacuum, or through any uniform material.
Light is refracted by?
when it passes through a new material

Why is a rainbow sometimes seen when light passes through raindrops or prisms?
The light is refracted

Light is refracted when it passes?
yes
What affects the color of light?
if the light passes through something that is coloured the light changes colour to the colour that it passed through
What is caused when light bends as it passes through a material?
Light does not bend as it passes through a material. It bends when it passes from one material to another. This is called refraction. Light can also be dispersed, that is separated into its different colours, if it is refracted enough.
