How Rainbow forms



Prologue

"Nature", so beautiful, stunning and awful to look at but poses so many questions that somewhat has been answered with pithy so we do not rancour. How rainbow is formed? is just as riddling as other phenomena. We notice the blue sky; the blue sea; a red sunset; the blue glow of the earth from aerial view and the bright green vegetation, all of which are filled with wonders that might need some response ‘scientific and research based’.


Rainbow [ɺeinbəƱ]

Produced by the prismatic refraction of light within droplets of rain in the atmosphere, rainbow is an arch in the sky with spectrum of colours arrayed in patterns. White light from the sun as insolation, contains a spectrum of seven [7] colours each with different wave-lengths. These differences in wave-lengths, forms the basis for the pattern of refraction of light in soggy air to produce an arch of seven colours in a horizontal array.

Soggy air in damp or moist region [droplets of rain], acts as a prism and scatters or refracts light to produce an arch of colours of the light spectrum, with each colour arch occurring just below another from the top to bottom in an array pattern consequent to the different wave-lengths of each colour spectrum. Ergo, it is the difference in wavelengths of each colour spectrum forming the spectrum that gives or cause the unique arrangement of the colour spectra in an arch form with one colour ling just above another in an array.

The question how Rainbow forms?
It is a consequence of the refraction of light based on the respective but different wavelengths of each colour spectrum, thus forming an arch of seven colours each.
Ergo the name: RAIN & BOW [ɺeinbəƱ]
