Lemon juice by far. The acidity of lemon juice maintains the structure of the apples to keep them from oxidizing.
Apple juice or water will not improve the life of cut apples for any extraordinary reasons besides the fact that the apples being submerged keeps them from being exposed to the air, and from oxidation, but waterlogging them like that is probably likely to produce really odd results.
