A Consider a bubble formed from a thin, soapy film that looks blue when viewed
at normal incidence. Estimate the thickness of the film. Assume its index of
refraction is nfilm-D1.35 and blue light has a wavelength Ablue-D400 nm. Also
assume the film is so thin that thinner films are not able to give constructive
interference,
