Rainbows

Light travels in waves. The light's wavelength determines its perceived color. Short wavelength light, for example, appears blue, and long wavelength light appears red. Sunlight is composed of light of many wavelengths. In the range that we can see, this includes the colors of the rainbow. When light enters water it bends (refracts). The amount of bending depends on the wavelength of light. As a result, the light splits into its component colors.
the water / fog in the air reflects the sunlight, causing the white light of the sun to divide and become a rainbow color in the sky

Rainbows can be seen when there is sunlight and rain simultaneously. Typically you can see rainbows when the sun is low in the sky, so early morning or late afternoon are the best times to see rainbows.

A person who studies rainbows is called a "rainbowologist."

Most rainbows occur in areas with frequent rain showers and sunlight, such as near coastlines or in tropical regions. They are formed when sunlight is refracted, reflected, and dispersed by water droplets in the atmosphere, creating the colorful spectrum of light we see in the sky.

It ends in a very special place if you happen to go there send me a postcard.....

OK~ so a rainbow ends at the top of mount pony ville and there you will find a magic unicorn who will grant u wishes be happy this is a once in a life time opportunity

A rainbow forms when sunlight is refracted, or bent, by raindrops in the sky. This causes the sunlight to separate into its different colors, creating the familiar arc of colors we see.

Rainbows occur when sunlight is refracted, or bent, in raindrops. The sunlight is split into its component colors as it passes through the raindrop, creating the colors of the rainbow. The angle at which the light is refracted determines the size and shape of the rainbow.

You need some form of rain or spray of liquid for a rainbow to occur, and it doesn't need to be water. Any liquid that doesn't absorb light will do, because light needs to enter and exit a drop of liquid to produce a rainbow.

Saturn's moon "Titan" has rain of liquid methane, which can produce rainbows with an angular radius of 48.5° (Water rainbows on Earth have an angular radius of 42.4°). Since Titan's atmosphere is orange, the rainbow would have an overall orange tint, though.

No, they aren't. Rainbows occur when lights go through rain droplets, like a prism.

Well, that depends how liberal you wish to be with the laws of science. No, you cant, because it is just the bending of light by water. Yes, you can, because you can place yourself in the exact spot of the "rainbow".

Prisms make rainbows by refracting white light into its different colors through the process of dispersion. When white light enters a prism, it is bent at different angles based on the wavelength of each color, splitting it into its individual components. This separation of colors results in the formation of a rainbow.

Sunlight being refracted by rain.

When you see a rainbow, stand with your back to the Sun. The centre of the rainbow is in a direct line from the Sun, through you to the centre of the bow.

From that line the coloured bow is angled at 42 o (degrees).

There are seven colours; they are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet and indigo. The red is always on the outside of the bow and the indigo on the inside of the bow. This is because the wavelength of red light is longer, so it is seen on the longer(outside) edge. Conversely, the wavelength of indigo light is shorter, so it is seen on the shorter(inside) of the bow.

Because of 'light bending' the outside of the red edge is darker. Conversely the inside of the indigo edge is lighter,

If the rainbow is very bright, you will see a reflected bow outside the main rainbow. In the reflected bow the colours and light bending are reversed. On the very rare ocassions you may see a triple bow, outside again, with everything revered to the original form .

In the Christian religion, the rainbow is a symbol of God's covenant with every living man and creature. (The Bible, Book of Genesis, Chapter 9. )

The old weather lore in England is if you see a rainbow in the morning it is a very reliable forecast for more rain that day. Conversely, if you see a rainbow in the evening, again it is a very reliable forecast of no more rain that day.

So there you have it , about rainbows appearing in the sky!!!!!

Rainbows are optical and meteorological phenomena that appear in the sky as a multi-colored circular arc. They are formed by the reflection, refraction, and dispersion of sunlight through raindrops. Rainbows always appear in the opposite direction of the sun, with red on the outer edge and violet on the inner edge.

Rainbows are circular in shape because they are formed by the refraction, reflection, and dispersion of sunlight through water droplets in the atmosphere. The light is bent at different angles depending on its wavelength, creating the distinctive arc shape we see.

Rainbows are found anywhere after the earth has had a sun-shower. Water and sunlight make a rainbow because of some scientific reason i don't really understand. You can find rainbows also in dreams but sadly not in nightmares

There are 7 colors in a rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

the pupil; light enters the eye through it its black because most of the light colours are absorbed. it is covered by the lens and cornea and surrounded by the iris (the colour of the eye).

A rainbow occurs when sunlight is refracted, reflected, and dispersed by water droplets in the atmosphere, typically after a rain shower. The sunlight enters the water droplets, gets reflected inside them, and exits as different colors due to dispersion, creating the rainbow.

Rainbows form when sunlight is refracted, dispersed, and reflected inside raindrops in the atmosphere, creating a spectrum of colors. This usually occurs during or after a rain shower when the sun is shining.

No. A rainbow is 6...or 7 if you will...different colors put together...(red,orange,yellow,green,blue,violet aka purple or red,orange,yellow,green,blue,indigo,violet aka purple)but, when all put together in the right order...what color is it?

Rainbows form after a thunderstorm because sunlight is refracted, or bent, through raindrops in the air. This refraction causes the light to separate into its different colors, creating the beautiful spectrum of colors we see in a rainbow.

Scientists who study rainbows are called atmospheric scientists or optical physicists. They study the physics behind the formation and properties of rainbows, including how light is refracted, reflected, and dispersed in the atmosphere to create this colorful phenomenon.

you might be familiar with the bible story of noahs ark the one who grabs two of every anomal sticks them in a boat for forty days and forty nightswhile the whole earth is flooded yardy yardy yardy well they say that its gods promise to never flood the world again.
