Brief Explanations

Light travels at its maximum speed in a vacuum. When it passes through any type of matter (a medium like air, water, glass etc.), the interaction with the atoms and molecules in the matter causes the light to slow down. Absorption and reflection depend on the properties of the matter and the nature of the light, but the general rule is that light slows in a medium compared to its speed in a vacuum.

Answer:

The light slows down.
