Best Answer

The seven colours of the rainbow are:

Red

Orange

Yellow

Green

Blue

Indigo

Violet

One way to remember the list is by using the words ROY& VIB, which are the initial letters of the list, starting from the two ends, and then meeting at green, being the colour between blue & yellow.

Another way to remember is that there are two invisible colours after the ends of the visible scale, Infra Red and Ultra Violet. Starting from these two ends, you may be able to visualize and then deduce the chain of colours in the sequence required to meet up in the middle!

What happens when you make a rainbow with the help of a glass of water and sunlight?

The sunlight hits the glass of water and then the light disperses out as a spectrum of colour (rainbow). This is because sunlight is white light and white light contains the 7 colours of the rainbow. When it hits the glass the colours refract and disperse out as the spectrum of colours, which we see as a rainbow.


Why does rainbows have many colors?

Rainbow is made from refraction & total internal reflection of light of the sun. The light of sun is white, which is combination of 7 colours. When rainbow occoures, white light is divide into all these colours. That's why rainbows have many colours.
