Question

(asked before but answer was incorrect)

At a particular spot on a soap bubble (n = 1.33), you see yellow light at 575 nm. If that is from the second longest (m = 2) possible wavelength, how thick is the bubble at that point IN NANOMETERS? (Hint: If you leave the wavelength in nm, the answer will be in nm. No conversion necessary.) %D %3D (Unit = nm)

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given: The refractive index is 1.33. 

          The wavelength is 575 nm.

To determine: The thickness of the bubble.

In soap bubble, the interference is constructive. 

The condition for constructive interference is 

2 n d cosθ=2m+1λ2 ............................................ (1) 

where n is the refractive index, d is the thickness and λ is the wavelength.
