There's a broad band of wavelengths of light coming from a rainbow. They range
from wavelengths that are too short for your eyes to detect, all the way to
wavelengths that are too long for your eyes to detect. Within that band of
wavelengths is the total band that your eyes can detect, and you see them
as a spread out display of all the colors that your eyes and brain can work
together to perceive.

Why don't rainbows show the color pink?
When a ray of white sunlight hits drops of water (also in the forms of spray and mist), it bends and breaks the sun ray into into different colors. These colors span the entire spectrum of colors and because the spectrum of colors is always the same and always in the same order, rainbows are always the same color. The order of the colors are: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
Why is the second rainbow in a double rainbow reversed?
The second rainbow in a double rainbow is reversed because the light is reflected twice inside the raindrop, causing the colors to appear in reverse order. This is due to the different angles at which the light exits the raindrop for each reflection, resulting in the reversal of the color sequence.
Can bubbles form a rainbow in them?
Yes, bubbles can display a rainbow effect due to the way light is reflected and refracted off the surface of the soap film. The thickness of the bubble wall determines which colors are seen, creating a color spectrum similar to a rainbow.
How did a rainbow start?
Theres no actual "start time" it just happened. I think it "started" during Niah's Arc when there was a rainbow and a dove came and brought a piece of land (grass) to show the earth was mo longer flooded.

What is the biblical meaning of the colors in the rainbow?
The colors are not specified in scripture, only the promise that God has set his bow into the sky or heavens. However, pure white light when traveling through a prism or a raindrop functioning as such, separates into visible wavelengths we see as colors. Roy G. Biv is not a Bible character, but a memory aid for red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet--the most visible bands of a rainbow.

What is an example of an object that breaks white light to show different colors (like a rainbow)?
That's called - a prism.
Why can white light refract to show all the colours of the rainbow?
White light is composed of a spectrum of colors with different wavelengths. When white light enters a medium like glass or water, each color refracts at a slightly different angle due to their different wavelengths. This separation of colors produces the spectrum of colors we see in a rainbow.
What colors might a Candid skirt come in?
A candid skirt is just an expression to show how revealing the skirt actually is. They can come in a variety of colors from traditional black and white all the way to rainbow.
A tool used to separate white light and all of its colors?
prism Though not the only thing that can cause light to show its true colors. A CD, when held at various angles to the light a pattern forms on the CD showing the familiar rainbow color scheme (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet or Roy G. Biv). After a rain storm our atmosphere acts like a prism and that is why we get rainbows. I have also seen the trademark rainbow in a puddle and on my windshield,

Newton discovered that the colors formed by a prism can be recombined to create light?
He discovers what is known as the rainbow, by using a prism to show that light is made up of all of those colors.
