What do you call a sentence in a poem?
The rhythm of a poem depends on what metre is used to write it. The units of metre can be iambs, trochees, anapaests, or a number of others and there may be different ones and different numbers of these in each line. Iambic pentameter, for example contains five (penta-) iambs in each line. In such a poem, the units of meter are iambs. Trochaic hexameter would give you six (hexa-) trochees in each line. However, poems are frequently unable to be 'measured' in such simplistic terms.

How many times does a iamb repeat in a single prologue?
It all depends on the length of the prologue and the regularity of the metre. The prologue to Romeo and Juliet is fourteen lines long, and each line contains approximately five iambs, making a total of seventy in the whole prologue. That's more or less, since lines like "From ancient grudge break to new mutiny", it can be argued, contain only four iambs and one trochee. Romeo and Juliet is not the only one of Shakespeare's plays which has a prologue, however. Henry V has a particularly famous one which is 34 lines long, which would contain one hundred and seventy iambs if it were regular. (It isn't though. The first line "O for a muse of fire that would ascend" contains only 4 iambs and starts with a trochee) The Prologue to Henry IV Part II has 40 lines (200 iambs more or less) and the Prologue to Pericles has 42 lines of iambic tetrameter with 4 iambs to the regular line, a total of 168, more or less.
