RainBow





Figure 1: 
Basic diagram showing formation of rainbow. 

Note:    
  
The formation of a rainbow involves a series of physical phenomena - reflection, refraction, dispersion and total internal reflection.  

The occurrence of each of these is due to the interaction of light with air and water and the boundaries between them.
