Rainbows
Rainbows are solar spec
tra formed as sunlight
passes through drops of
water A rainbow has red on
the outside, violet mside
The center of the arc, 40
degrees in radius, is always
on line with the observer and
the sun When you see a
rainbow, the sun is directly
behind you Sometimes a
secondary rainbow forms
Its colors are fainter—and
reversed, red inside, violet
outside
