Are rainbows part of nature?
Yes. Rainbows are formed when the sun and water meet and water is nature and so is the sun so yes rainbows are part of nature
Why does the rainbows appears two or three rainbows sometimes?
rainbows are formed because of the scattering of light .......when the sunlight meets the water droplets..scattering of light takes place...this forms a rainbow 2 or 3 rainbows are formed because of the multiple scattering of light
Rainbows are formed when the sun breaks up moonlight?
Rainbows are formed by the reflection of sun onto water.
Biblical way of how rainbows are formed?
The Bible says nothing about how rainbows are formed.
What is the relationship between rainbows and lights?
Rainbows are formed by sunlight.
Where are rainbows mainly found?
Rainbows are formed when light passes through particles or droplets of water. They are normally seen after rainfall, therefore, they can really be seen anywhere in the world where there is rain.
How do you explain how rainbows are formed?
by the rain
Are rainbows only formed after the rain?
No, it can be formed also before.
Can rainbows be formed by the sun breaking up moonlight?
No. Rainbows are formed by the refraction of light due to water vapour in the atmosphere. While you can have 'moonbows' caused by moonlight (sunlight reflected by the moon), it still requires light + water vapour. Sunlight + moonlight alone, cannot form one.
When and how do you get rainbows formed?
Rainbows are made by the refraction and reflection of the sun's rays as they fall on raindrops.
How could rainbow made in sky?
Rainbows are caused by sunlight glinting off tiny water particles in the sky, bouncing the light back towards the observer. In other words, any time you see a rainbow directly in front of you, the Sun is directly behind you, and your shadow points at the center of the circle the rainbow is describing. There are 2 types of rainbows. One that is formed in the sky and one that is formed by mist. But they both have something in common. All rainbows are formed by water or moisture and light put together and makes a rainbow. That's why you see rainbows right after rain.
Why don't you see rainbows when the weather is dry?
Rainbows are created by water droplets in the air acting as prisms. If it's dry, there are no water droplets in the air, and no rainbows.
