What occurs in a prism?
What happens when light enters a prism is the light is broken up into all its natural colors. Hence what happens when you see a rainbow, all the little rain drops act as a prism.
What are the syllables in exact?
There are two syllables like so: ex-act.
What do you do if a teacher likes you?
Well... if a teacher likes you: You Like Him Back: Act nice, but not too nice...(It might get to Level 2) You Don't Like Him Back: Tell someone if he touches you unaproprietly. Talk to an adult
What is 8 percent minus 3 percent?
Take 8 minus 3 and that equals 5. Just act like the percent symbol isn't there.
What is the order of the tests taken in the act?
Act,explore,plan
What is reason to see rainbow?
When sunlight passes through raindrops, the rain drops act like a glass prism. The sunlight is split into the rainbow colours in the sky, and a rainbow appears.
Water vapor acts like a prism and can break up white light into different colors to cause a rainbow to appear?
Yes, water vapor can act like a prism. A rainbow is caused by raindrops, not by vapor. When light enters a raindrop at an angle to its surface, different colors refract at different angles as in a prism. A reflection occurs at the far side of the drop, and more refraction occurs as the light exits the drop, to be seen by your eye. Multiple reflections inside the drop are the cause of multiple ("double", even "triple") rainbows.
Where does the white light from a rainbow come from?
When sunlight shines through rain drops, the rain drops act like a prism, and the sunlight is split into the rainbow colours we see and know as a rainbow.
Why a rainbow is formed?
the sunlight passes through the water drops in the clouds it split into into a band of colors (act like a prism). so the rainbow is formed.the colors are VIBGYOR.
Which of these can act like a prism causing the visible light spectrum to be seen in a rainbow across the sky?
there are three choices, the correct one is raindrops

What makes rainbows colorful?
Water droplets in the air act like a prism and bend the light rays from the Sun which splits the light into the individual wavelengths, allowing you to view it as a rainbow.
Why is the sun shining on the raindrops important in making a rainbow?
becasue the rain bends the light from the sun thus casueing a rainbow The raindrops act as a prism and refract the light from the sun, causing it to break up into the colors of the spectrum. This happens because the color we see depends on the angle of refraction. Passing through a prism or a raindrop, different parts of the light are bent by different amounts, and so they get separated.
How does a prism create a rainbow pattern of light?
White light is really all the colors of light, red to indigo, combined together. Running the light through a prism (including raindrops) splits those colors out separately because each light bends a little more or less than its neighboring colors when going through the prism (or raindrops).
What happens when white light from the sun passes through raindrops?
The light separates, or refracts (I think that's the right word) into a rainbow inside the drop and recombines into white light as it leaves the drop. That is why you need many many drops to see a rainbow.
What really is a rainbow?
Rainbows are arcs of spectral colors created when white light is separated into red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet light. This occurs when the light is filtered through a prism. Raindrops and mist act as prisms for sunlight and created what we call rainbows in the sky. Note a prism caused "refraction" and that is the term that makes the rainbow a rainbow!
What type of Len's convex or concave does a prism act like?
convex
