How is rainbow formed
Answers
Answer:
A rainbow is a meteorological phenomenon that is caused by reflection, refraction and dispersion of light in water droplets resulting in a spectrum of light appearing in the sky. It takes the form of a multicoloured circular arc. Rainbows caused by sunlight always appear in the section of sky directly opposite the sun.
Rainbows can be full circles. However, the observer normally sees only an arc formed by illuminated droplets above the ground, and centered on a line from the sun to the observer's eye.
In a primary rainbow, the arc shows red on the outer part and violet on the inner side. This rainbow is caused by light being refracted when entering a droplet of water, then reflected inside on the back of the droplet and refracted again when leaving it.
In a double rainbow, a second arc is seen outside the primary arc, and has the order of its colours reversed, with red on the inner side of the arc. This is caused by the light being reflected twice on the inside of the droplet before leaving it.
Hope this helps you.
Answer: it is formed by the reflection
Of the sunrays through raindrops.
A rainbow is a natural spectrum appearing in tge sky after a rainshower. It is caused by the dispersiin of sunlight by tiny water droplets present in the atmosphere. A rainbow is always formed
In a direction opp. The water droplets reacts as a small prisms. Due to dispersion of light and internal reflations diff colours reach the obsevers of eyes
