Why do we see a rainbow in the sky only after rainfall?
The periscope is an optical device with a polished surface that reflects the light falling on it.
Assertion: We can see the rainbow in the sky when the rain starts falling after a spell of bright sunlight.
Reason: The rainbow is formed due to the dispersion of light.
During dispersion of white light by prism placed in air, for a particular value of angle of prism,
The angle of deviation through a prism is minimum when

- Incident rays and emergent rays are symmetric to the prism.
- The refracted ray inside the prism becomes parallel to its base.
- The angle of incidence is equal to that of the angle of emergence.
- When the angle of emergence has doubled the angle of incidence.
