∙ 15y agobecause there are only those colors in the visible light spectrum. When you see colors on the table from the window, it's because there is water on the window and it disperses the light which separates the white light and turns it into colors. i hope this helps you!

∙ 12y agoA rainbow has different colors because of refraction. When light passes from one material into another, it is bent slightly. In the case of a rainbow, sunlight is passing from air into the water droplets that are left behind during or after a rain shower. When the light passes into the water droplets, the red light is bent slightly less than the other colors of light while the blue and purple light is bent slightly more. The result is that the colors are separated and that you see them separately, as you would if you passed the light through a prism, and you end up with a rainbow.
