Rainbows occur shortly after it rains. White light (sunlight) consists of each color, each with a different wavelength. The rain partices act like a prism. The light goes into the prsim and refracts into every color. Other waves don't refract this way but certain colors bend more than others. The rain droplets bend the white light into separate colors to make a rainbow.
a prism
Separating light into various colors produces a spectrum or rainbow.
There are several typical rainbow colors. They include red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. These are the seven typical rainbow colors.
Colors mean the rainbow, and rainbow means your gay. =D
well, the rainbow obviously has all the colors, but the answer is brown.
A prism refracts light into its component colours just like a rainbow does, so some of the colours are.... * Red * Orange * Yellow * Green * Blue * Indigo * Voilet .... and there are lots of intermediary colours in there also.

Visible Spectrum
Separating light into various colors produces a spectrum or rainbow.
In optics, a prism refracts incoming light.
Visible Spectrum
The light bends and it is separated in the different colors of the rainbow.
If I'm not mistaking, but I believe there are 7 colors on a Rainbow.
It doesn't. Light doesn't reflect other things; light can be reflected (by a mirror, for example). White light is a mixture of all colors of visible light. In a rainbow, or prism, it is separated into its components.
A rainbow? I mean you are seeing the entire visible spectrum... Rainbow isn't the most scientific word but it's something...rainbow is refracted light so yea final answer... Rainbow
The light is broken into its seven colors (colors of the rainbow) and exits the prism at a different angle with the separated colors. It functions in the exact same way water droplets separate light to create an actual rainbow, but with cut glass instead of water.
No. White light is a mixture of many colors. When you see a rainbow, you see the white light separated into its components.
