Why Rainbow is in arc shape?

Answers

Answered by anzu51

Answer:

Rainbows are circular because raindrops are spherical. When light from the Sun enters a raindrop it is largely reflected back inside a cone with a half-angle of 42 degrees. The reflected light is strongest along the surface of this cone where it is broken up into a spectrum of colours.
