Among the given options, the violet color of light has the minimum wavelength. Therefore, the violet color of light undergoes maximum deviation when the light passes through the prism.
What is minimum deviation of prism?
In minimum deviation, the refracted ray in the prism is parallel to its base. In other words, the light ray is symmetrical about the axis of symmetry of the prism. Also, the angles of refractions are equal i.e. r1 = r2. ... (where n is the refractive index, A is the Angle of Prism and Dm is the Minimum Angle of Deviation.)
Which color has the highest angle of deviation?
Out of all the colours in VIBGYOR, that is Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, and Red, Violet has the maximum angular deviation, and Red has the least or minimum angular deviation.
