A rainbow is a meteorological phenomenon that is caused by reflection, refraction and
dispersion of light in water droplets resulting in a spectrumof light appearing in the sky. It takes
the form of a multicolored arc. Rainbows caused by sunlight always appear in the section of sky
directly opposite the sun.
Rainbows can be full circles; however, the average observer sees only an arc formed by
illuminated droplets above the ground, and nitroaniline 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
colors reversed, with red on the inner side of the arc.
