Once white light passes through a triangular prism, it slows down, bends, and breaks into component colors. So, options A, B, and E are the correct options.
Once white light passes through a prism, it undergoes the process of refraction which states that light bends when it changes mediums. this means that light bends when it passes through the prism. Add to this the fact that the speed of light decreases when it travels from a lighter medium(air) to a denser medium(prism). So, it slows down as well.
It is also a property of light that it splits into its seven constituent colors when it passes through a prism. The seven colors are - violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red. These are also the colors of a rainbow that is formed after white sunlight is split when it passes through any raindrop. So, options A, B, and E are the answers.
