white light
Sir Isaac Newton discovered that white light contains all colors when he used a prism to split light into its component colors in the 17th century. This discovery led to the development of the concept of the visible spectrum.
BlackAll of the colours that make the white light shine down on the black object and all of the colours that make the white light the light absorbs into the object and no light reflects.WhiteAll of the colours that make the white light shine down on the white object and the light and no light is absorbed into the object but all of the colours that make the white light are reflected into your eyes
Monochromatic light consists of a single wavelength or color, while white light is a combination of all visible wavelengths. White light appears colorless to the human eye, while monochromatic light appears as a distinct color.
Each piece of clothing usually reflect only a few colours. Pure white light contains all of the colours, so an item of clothing can reflect all of the few colours it is capable of reflecting. If an item of clothing is viewed in magenta light (which is mainly blue and red) then that clothing may show that it is only able to reflect some shades of red and/or some shades of blue.
White light is composed of many colours. When these colours combine, they look white. One way of showing that white light is composed of different colours is to make white light pass through a glass prism. This splits up the white light into its constituent colours. I f you hold a screen in its path, you will see a band of colours. This band of colours is called the spectrum. Since it is visible to human eyes, it is called the visible spectrum.
Theoretically white light contains all of the colours of the rainbow, an infinite number of colours.
White light.
It's "white light". When all colours of the rainbow are combined in their purest form (light), they create white light. All colours of the rainbow can be derived from the colours red, green and blue. These 3 colours are known as the RGB colour model (Red, Green, Blue). When these three colours are combined in their purest form, they also form white light
Red.
Rainbow is made from refraction & total internal reflection of light of the sun. The light of sun is white, which is combination of 7 colours. When rainbow occoures, white light is divide into all these colours. That's why rainbows have many colours.
White light contains all the colors of the spectrum, as it is made up of all the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

The sunlight hits the glass of water and then the light disperses out as a spectrum of colour (rainbow). This is because sunlight is white light and white light contains the 7 colours of the rainbow. When it hits the glass the colours refract and disperse out as the spectrum of colours, which we see as a rainbow.
Light has 7 colours. The colours are those that make up a rainbow - red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple.
