WHATCAUSES A RAINBOW? A RAINBOW IS CAUSED BY SUNLIGHT AND WATER DROPLETS. WE ALL KNOW THAT WHEN WE SEE DIFFERENT COLORS, IT IS BECAUSE LIGHT REFLECTS INTO OUR EYES IN THE COLOR THAT WE SEE. THIS MEANS THAT LIGHT IS ORIGINALLY WHITE BUT IT CAN REFLECT INTO DIFFERENT COLOURS INTO OUR EYES. SAME THING WITH THE FORMATION OF A RAINBOW, WHEN WHITE LIGHT PASSES THROUGH A WATER DROPLET, IT REFLECTS OFF THE INSIDE OF A DROPLET AND SEPARATES INTO 7 COLOURS OF A RAINBOW.
