    large amount of spherical raindrops to form in the atmosphere. The rainbows can be compared to mini prisms. The light is refracted ("bending of light as it passes from one medium to another") and it causes different wavelengths (or colors) of the white light to separate. Whether these wavelengths of light will pass through the raindrop or reflect depends on the angle the light strikes the back of the raindrop. If a wavelength of the light strikes the back of the raindrop at an angle less than 48 degree

  • Effect of a Water Droplet on a Rainbow

    1997 Words  | 4 Pages

    This effect is called dispersion. You can see a rainbow whenever you look opposite the sun at sunlit raindrops (or water drops). The raindrop acts like a mirror in that it reflects some of the refracted light back towards you, while other rays leave directly from the opposite side. These refracted rays are the ones that you see as a rainbow. Thus, when the white light from the sun hits a raindrop the light is dispersed as it enters (like in the prism). The different colors undergo refraction and

  • Understanding Isotopic Fractionation in Chemical Reactions

    874 Words  | 2 Pages

    Isotopic fractionation is an important process which occurs during chemical reactions when the abundances of the heavy isotopes in the reactants (A) are different from the abundances of the heavy isotopes in the product (B). Isotopes of one elements vary with neutrons and atomic mass, and therefore isotopes of the light elements (H, C, N, O, S) react at different rates in chemical reactions related to different thermodynamic properties. Isotopes of the same elements have different melting points

    white light, as it passes through a prism. Since a prism has two indexes, their difference causes light to diverge in different angles as it comes out of the prism. This splits the white color into many components, which are different colors. Since a raindrop contains two refractive indexes, it produces the different colors when hit by sunrays. These colors are what we see as a rainbow. Now in order to understand how lights is able to be refracted in different angles, it is important to understand the
