White light is made by all the colours creating constructive interference. When light passes through water, the light is refracted but they are all refracted differently creating a spectrum of the colours making white light, a rainbow.

What is the similarity between rainbows and prism?

They both involve a spectrum. If you shine light through a prism, it splits it up into the 7 colours of the rainbow. Rainbow is created when light shines through water, so rainbow is just another word for a spectrum. See? GCSE Physics pays off! =)


What did RenΓ© Descartes have to say about rainbows?

René Descartes showed by using geometric construction and the law of refraction that the angular radius of a rainbow is 42 degrees (i.e., the angle subtended at the eye by the edge of the rainbow and the ray passing from the sun through the rainbow's centre is 42°).
