It has the time of its life.
Presuming you mean a prism, then the light will pass through the (transparent) material of the prism in a straight line, but will be deflected upon exit.This is because two things happen too light passing through a prism.a) the different wavelengths of light travel at different velocities, (all slower than the speed of light in a vacuum), andb) the light will be deflected when it leaves the prism.
A one diopter prism will deviate a ray of light 1cm at a distance of one meter.
It'll undergo reflection and will get reflected back
A ray. When there are no points, its a line. When it has two points, its a line segment.
