White light is made up of different colors. When white light enters water (like moisture in the air) it is bent (refracted). However the different colors are bent (refracted) by different amounts. So this different amount of bending has the effect of separating the white light into its colors and we see this as a rainbow.lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Would the color of rainbow change if the water is colorful?

I think it would hardly make a difference. Please notice that the reason the rainbow is colored in the first place is not related to the color of the water, but to refraction. White light is a mix of colors; the refraction in a water drop separate those.

Is macula contribute to refraction in the eye?

The macula is not directly involved in the refraction of light in the eye. It is a small area near the center of the retina that is responsible for central vision and detailed color vision. Refraction primarily occurs at the cornea and lens of the eye.


HOW DOES a light make colours under water?

What color results from the greatest refraction?

Violet results from the greatest refraction as it has the shortest wavelength among visible colors, causing it to bend the most when passing through a medium like a prism.

What other objects can make refraction happen refraction happen?

Other objects that can make refraction happen include prisms, lenses, water droplets (creating a rainbow), and glass objects like windows or glasses. Refraction occurs when light passes from one medium to another and changes its speed, causing the light to bend.
