Different wavelengths refract at different angles when they pass through an interface (the meeting surface of two different media, or objects through which light passes) according to a variation of Snell's law. Because the light encounters two interfaces - one going in, one going out of the prism - it is refracted twice. The first refraction spearates the colours initially and the second spreads them even further apart.
A rainbow is caused by both reflection and refraction of sunlight in raindrops.
A rainbow is a combination of reflection, refraction, and dispersion of light energy. It is not a form of energy itself, but rather a phenomenon created by the interaction of light with water droplets in the atmosphere.
A rainbow is formed when sunlight is refracted, or bent, while passing through raindrops in the atmosphere. This refraction causes the white light to separate into its component colors, creating a spectrum of colors in the sky that we perceive as a rainbow.
A double rainbow forms when sunlight is reflected twice inside raindrops, creating a secondary rainbow above the primary one. This optical phenomenon occurs due to the refraction and dispersion of light, causing the different colors to separate and form the two rainbows.
A prism creates a rainbow by bending and separating white light into its different colors through a process called refraction. When light enters the prism, it is slowed down and bent at different angles depending on its wavelength, causing the colors to spread out and form a rainbow.

rainbow
No, water droplets in the air can also create a rainbow when they refract and reflect sunlight. A rainbow is formed by the refraction, dispersion, and reflection of light within water droplets in the atmosphere, not necessarily in a bottle.
No a rainbow is the refraction of light through rain and is only an optical illusion
Uummm, no. A rainbow is only a refraction of sunlight through micro droplets of water in the atmosphere.

A rainbow is not luminous on its own. It is created by light being refracted, or bent, in water droplets in the air, which causes the different colors to form the arc shape we see.
A double rainbow forms when sunlight is reflected twice inside raindrops, creating a secondary rainbow above the primary one. This optical phenomenon occurs due to the refraction and dispersion of light, causing the different colors to separate and form the two rainbows.
No you can't because a rainbow is just a refraction of light, similar to the way the sky is blue.
Because of the refraction of light. Hope this helps.
Natural light - a rainbow is an optical phenomenon that is caused by both refraction of light in water droplets in the atmosphere, resulting in all the colours of light appearing in the sky, in the form of an arc.
