There is a thin film of soap bubble of thickness d on air with a refractive index of n. When an incident light of wavelength is falling on the soap bubble it is creating a dark fringe and when the wavelength is falling it is creating a bright fringe of the same order at the same position on screen. Prove that the order of the fringe is From the above relation find the thickness of the soap bubble of refractive index 1.35 which is creating a bright fringe for 370nm and a dark fringe for 500nm.
