Rainbows do not 'produce' light. Classic rainbows appear whenever the sun is visible and there are small raindrops in the sky in the direction opposite the sun.
Imagine a ray from the sun hitting a drop that is directly above the spot that is opposite the sun. The sun's ray will enter the drop and, if the angle is right, bounce off the back of the drop and come out deflected by a characteristic angle, the "rainbow angle". If the drop is the right number of degrees above the antisolar point, the ray will will bounce off the back of drop and travel to your eye. You will thus see reflected sunlight that appears to be coming from a point that is above the the antisolar point by an angle equal to the rainbow angle.
If a slit is illuminated with white light, the light will be separated into its component colors due to diffraction, producing a rainbow pattern known as a spectrum due to the different wavelengths of light being diffracted at different angles. This effect is caused by the wave nature of light.
Visible light is the electromagnetic wave seen in a rainbow. This light is refracted, reflected, and dispersed by water droplets in the atmosphere to create the colors we see in a rainbow.
light is white. if you mix the colors of the rainbow you get white. A prism separates the colors, showing a rainbow.
A rainbow is formed when sunlight is refracted and dispersed by water droplets in the atmosphere. The colors in a rainbow are produced by the visible light spectrum, which does not include black. Black is the absence of light, so it does not appear in a rainbow.
When light enters a water droplet, it is refracted and dispersed into its component colors due to differences in the speed of each color in the medium. Each color is refracted at a slightly different angle, creating a spectrum of colors. The light reflects off the back of the droplet and exits, forming a circular arc of colors that we see as a rainbow.
No, a rainbow does not produce light, it is an effect of light being bent (refracted). The source of the light seen in a rainbow is the Sun.

Mixing the light colours of the rainbow will produce white light (i.e. daylight).
Because your mum didnt plan you to be born.
Since every possible color is somewhere in the rainbow, it must follow that when light with two or more of the rainbow's colors mix, the mix may produce another color that's somewhere else in the rainbow.
Apparently, a rainbow appears in the sky because both, rain and sun, mix together and produce light and colours. Some people belive that at the end of a rainbow is gold. But how does the gold just appear suddenly?
It splits into the colours that make it up, so white light makes a rainbow, and different colours produce different results.

A rainbow is composed of light. Light does not reflect light.
Rainbow is formed when light from a distant source falls on a collection of water drops such as in rain, spray, or fog.This is how rainbow related to light.
Rainbows are based on the Sun's light, and diffraction of the light in raindrops separates out the colors. From any position of Sun, rainfall, and observer, the colors are fixed in orientation. Rainbows only change colors in cartoons, or if recreational drugs are involved. Everyone sees rainbows differently. I could see it (from top) purple, red, orange, yellow, while you could see it red, yellow, orange, purple.
No. Water vapor has no light source. Also, a rainbow is really a circle. There is no "end" of the rainbow. The light source is the sun. Draw a line from the sun to the center of the rainbow. The different colors are located at the angles relative to the sun's rays. For instance, if I recall correctly, I seem to remember that "Red" occurs at about 22 degrees off axis from the center of the rainbow. Other colors occur at higher or lower angles.
