- White light hits the surface of a thin film (n = 1.6) perpendicularly. There is air on both sides of the membrane. The wavelengths 504 nm and 672 nm are missing from the reflected light. a) What is the minimum thickness of the thin film? b) Which wavelengths are strongly visible in the reflected light?A flat piece of glass is held stationary and horizontal above the highly polished, flat top end of a 9.00-cm-long vertical metal rod that has its lower end rigidly fixed. The thin film of air between the rod and glass is observed to be bright by reflected light when it is illuminated by light of wavelength 515 nm. As the temperature is slowly increased by 25.5°C, the film changes from bright to dark and back to bright 200 times. What is the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal?A thin film of soap with n = 1.40 hanging in the air reflects dominantly red light with λ = 664 nm. Now this film is on a sheet of glass, with n = 1.55. What is the wavelength of the light in air that will now be predominantly reflected?
- A child is playing with a bubble wand, which is a large rectangular wire frame that contains a soap film. The child holds the wand vertically, which causes the film to be thinner at the top and thicker at the bottom, forming a wedge shape. Assume a thickness of essentially zero at the top. White light shines on the film with approximately normal incidence. The child views the reflected light from the film and sees the first violet interference band at a distance of 3.00 cm from the top edge of the film. The index of refraction of the soap film is the same as that of water, n = 1.33, and the wavelength of violet light is 1 = 403 nm. (a) At what distance (in cm) from the top edge of the film does the child see the first red (A = 666 nm) interference band? cm (b) What is the thickness (in nm) of the soap film at the location of the first violet interference band? nm What is the thickness (in nm) of the soap film at the location of the first red interference band? nm (c) What is the wedge…The rhinestones in costume jewelry are glass with index of refraction 1.50. To make them more reflective, they are often coated with a layer of silicon monoxide of index of refraction 2.00. What is the minimum coating thickness needed to ensure that light of wavelength 467 nm and of perpendicular incidence will be reflected from the two surfaces of the coating with fully constructive interference? Number UnitsMonochromatic light (λvacuum = 640 nm) shines on a soap film (n = 1.33) that has air on either side of it. The light strikes the film perpendicularly. What is the minimum thickness of the film for which constructive interference causes it to look bright in reflected light?
