      Thats a good thing. Cause this video is false. Its only a circle because its reflecting off the water. You can tell because it breaks up over the tower showing how it was only a reflection from the water below.

    It's strange we don't SEE working science models of rainbows except outside (lawn sprinklers)? It should be easy? A single light source and water mist? They should be making rainbows in elementary schools as learning science project. What's the issue? I think they'll find a glass dome is needed to complete the project. Please science teachers prove me wrong!

    • @stamythezombie
      @stamythezombie Місяць тому

      Very easy to replicate with a prism, but the problem with using a light source outside is that your eyes will only see it if the dominant light source is behind you and the refractor is at the right angle. The sun is usually the dominant light source while other sources cover a very small area of our vision and/or are less intense than the sun.
      But it is easy to replicate in low light environments, ergo a rave with LEDs and steam diffusers; so yeah, instead of using a simple prism in a dark room like they did to me, they should be making small rainbow kits for schools.

      In order to get the pot of gold, one must go to the corner of the circle. But since circles do not have corners, you have to travel around the circumference at a speed of 70000km/s over and over again until you form a black hole and go to the 16th dimension. There, you will find where they hid the pot of gold.

    They're actually 'rainspheres' and are reflection of the globe when there is rain and sun. Only the perimeter of the earth is reflected in technicolor because the inside of the circle is the reflection of the earth itself, which has no color as the light from the sun is blocked, whereas the perimeter is wet and reflects light.

    They are primary rainbow which due to 2 times refraction and 1 Time Total internal reflection , red colour is visible to us firstly and violet colour at last,,

    Because if you accidentally make a rainbow in your home you can see it being a circle.

    Rainbows aren't just arcs in the sky - they're actually full circles

    Is it still the same rainbow if viewed from a different angle? 🤔 Saying all rainbows are full circles feels a bit like saying that all reflections are actually reflections of yourself (because if viewed from the correct angle they would be).

    Rainbows are spherical just like the droplets, but we don't perceive it.
