What's A "Prism" In Science Terms?

• A prism is a shape that allows an a lot of colors separate and reflect off into the sun or moon causing colors to show. Rain will make an rainbow show (Depending on sunlight)

• a glass or other transparent object in prism form, especially one that is triangular with refracting surfaces at an acute angle with each other and that separates white light into a spectrum of colors.

• A prism is a square class that separates white light into a spectrum of colors.

• A prism is a 2D Triangle tool that allows you to see UV light.
