Light waves come in different wavelengths and frequencies. The color of the light we see is dependent on wavelength. When we see a rainbow, we are actually seeing

A. Light waves of the same frequency.

B. Light waves of the same wavelength.

C.A single wave of light.

D. Light waves of different wavelengths.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A rainbow is formed because sunlight or white light is refracted by water drops into bands of different colors. Each color refracts at a different angle because each color within the visible spectrum is made of light waves of different wavelengths and different frequencies.

When we see a rainbow, we are actually see light waves of different wavelengths.

What is the refraction ?

Rainbow forms at the time of monsoon when light coming from the sun passes  through  the water present in the clouds.

When sunlight  passes to the wet clouds it splits in into the seven colors of different wavelength.This phenomenon is called as the refraction of the light.

Hence When we see a rainbow, we are actually see light waves of different wavelengths.
