14.

After rainfall, a rainbow forms, ALWAYS or SOMETIMES or NEVER, Why?

Always, because the surface of the water droplet matters for the reflection, dispersion and refraction of the sun's white light.

b)

Sometimes, because the surface of the water droplet matters for the reflection, dispersion and refraction of the sun's white light.

c)

Never, because the surface of the water droplet matters for the reflection, dispersion and refraction of the sun's white light.
