water refracts or bends light and that alters the path that the light is taking. It also can act as a prisom and break it up. This is why rainbows are usually present after a rain storm. The water particles left in the air bend the light.

How do you make light reflect off a mirror into water to make an rainbow?

To create a rainbow effect using a mirror and water, you'll need a source of white light (like sunlight), angle the mirror so that it reflects the light onto the surface of the water, and position yourself in a way that you see the reflection of the light in the water at a specific angle to see the rainbow. This effect occurs due to the refraction and dispersion of light as it passes through the water, creating the rainbow colors.
