There could be, in principle, if the light source were monochromatic. But since the

source is virtually always the sun or the moon, the bow displays all the colors that

are in sunlight.

This would be a fascinating experiment to set up if you ever have the chance.

What you need is a big open inside space, like a large garage or warehouse.

With the space otherwise dark, fire up a bright monochromatic spotlight at

one end, stand in the middle with you r back to the light, and release a water

spray into the air in front of you. You should see a 42-degree arc, or bow, of

only the color of the spot light.

Is white light monochromatic light?

No exactly the contrary, white light is made up of light of all the colours of the rainbow. And you need to take that literally. The rainbow has these colours because rain acts as a prism and breaks the white light of the sun apart in the colours it is made up of. Because monochromatic means 'of one and the same colour', white light is not monochromatic. LASER light is always monochromatic: all particles have exactly the same wavelength (colour)

Is sodium lamp a monochromatic lamp?

No, a sodium lamp is not a monochromatic lamp. It emits light in a narrow range of wavelengths, primarily the yellow-orange region of the spectrum, but it is not strictly monochromatic as it produces a broader spectrum of light compared to a true monochromatic source.

What color does all of the colors of the rainbow make when mixed together?

The light we observe is a mixture of monochromatic lights with different frequencies that can undergo dispersion of VIBGYOR colors when it passes through a denser medium. The VIBGYOR colors of the rainbow are independent mono chromatic light wave particles that constitute light itself. If all the colors of the rainbow is mixed together it will appear white light.


What is monochromatic in physics terms?

In physics, monochromatic refers to light that consists of only one wavelength. This means that the light is of a single color with a specific frequency. Monochromatic light is often used in experiments and applications that require precise and controlled wavelengths.
