"Light shining through a keyhole and spreading out into a dark room."

This is diffraction — the spreading of waves when they pass through an opening or around an obstacle. The other choices are refraction (bending in a new medium), dispersion in a prism (separating wavelengths), and scattering (in the atmosphere).
