Question
A student shines a variable light source directly onto a thin
film of oil that is...
A student shines a variable light source directly onto a thin
film of oil that is on the surface of a piece of plastic. The oil
has an index of refraction of 1.62 while the plastic has an index
of refraction of 1.44. The student adjusts the light source until
the first bright reflection occurs, which they note occurs when the
wavelength is 560 nm.
Q1. At which if any does the light undergo a 180 phase change
on reflection? justify answer.
air-oil interface oil-plastic interface both interfaces
neither interfaces
Q2. determine the frequency of the light in the air.
Q3. calculate the minimum possible thickness of the oil
film.
