After going through the prism light gets dispersed and break down into it's 7 constitutional color (violet, indigo,blue,green, yellow,orange,red)
All these colors have different properties
Light spectrum which have large wavelength and low frequency will deviate less like Red. Red light has largest wavelength so it has property to travel more distance without getting diverted that's why it is use  in emergency situation.
Light spectrum which low wavelength and largest frequency will deviate most like violet. All light spectrum will have same speed as that of white light ray
