A prism bends light rays. White light is made up of many different wave lengths of light. A prism bends each wave length a different amount, that is why different colors are produced from the output side of a prism.

Prisms, lenses, and other transparent materials can bend light rays by refracting them as they pass through the material. The amount of bending depends on the material's refractive index and the angle at which the light enters.
