The Mathematics of Rainbows

by Maira Agudelo

Submitted : Fall 2014

In this project we will be using Snell’s law to find the angle of deviation and angle of deflection of a rainbow, which is also a technique that can be user to find each angle of deviation and deflection of the colors of the angle. Even though this is a technique that is not 100% to work correctly, it work perfect in our assumption since we did not consider events that happen daily with weather that could affect results.
