Reflection is where all light is redirected off of a surface.

Refraction is where light passes through a clear object of different density and is thereby bent into a different direction.

Absorption is where light energy is transformed into another form of energy (heat) upon hitting the surface.

- Only when all light is absorbed is when black is seen.
- Colors we see are the light component reflected off of the object with the other light components being absorbed.
The Spectrum is the component colors found in white light. All the color components of white light traveling in the same direction will produce white light. Enough refraction of white light will break it apart into its components colors. This is due to each color component having a different wavelength and is therefore bent to a different angle.
Raindrops floating in the air after a rain-shower refract light traveling through the drops creating the rainbow effect.
