There is a film of oil (n=1.52) on a wet pavement (n=1.33). the film has a minimum non-zero thickness such that it is dark when viewed in red light (wavelength = 660 nm in vacuum). Assuming that the visible light spectrum extends from 380nm to 750nm, what wavelength in vacuum will you see when you look at the film in broad daylight?

A thin film of oil (n = 1.13) is located on a smooth, wet pavement. When viewed perpendicular to the pavement, the film appears to be predominantly red (640 nm) and has no component of wavelength 569 nm. How thick is the oil film? nm

A uniform layer of water (n = 1.33) lies on a glass plate (n = 1.52). Light shines perpendicularly on the layer. Because of constructive interference, the layer looks maximally bright when the wavelength of the light is 438 nm in vacuum and also when it is 657 in vacuum. (a) Obtain the minimum thickness of the film. (b)...

A soap film (n = 1.33) is 498 nm thick and lies on a glass plate (n = 1.52). Sunlight, whose wavelengths (in vacuum) extend from 380 to 750 nm, travels through the air and strikes the film perpendicularly. For which wavelength(s) in this range does destructive interference cause the film to look dark in reflected light? To 3 significant figures
A thin film of oil (n. =1.50) with varying thickness floats on water (nw = 1.33). When it is illuminated from above by white light, the reflected colors are as shown in the figure below. In air, the wavelength of yellow light is 580 nm. (a) What is the oil's thickness t at point B? (hint: this is the second thinnest region for yellow light]. (b) Estimate (no calculation) the oil's thickness at point A. [hint : use the result...
Water (n = 1.33) in a shallow pan is covered with a thin film of oil that is 450 nm thick and has an index of refraction of 1.45. What visible wavelengths will not be present in the reflected light when the pan is illuminated with white light and viewed from straight above?
A soap film bubble (n = 1.33) with air (n = 1.00) on both sides has the smallest nonzero film thickness, such that it appears yellow by strongly reflecting light with a wavelength of 570 nm in vacuum. What would be the next smallest thickness for the soap film, such that it still appeared yellow by strongly reflecting 570-nm light? 285 nm 214 nm 665 nm 375 nm 321 nm
