Light with wavelength 530 nm in air (n = 1) passes through a soap bubble (n = 1.33), where its wavelength becomes ≈ 400 nm.

A What is the phase difference between a light wave reflected off the surface of the bubble and one that passes into it before being reflected?

B The thickness of the bubble is 100 nm. Does this lead to constructive or destructive interference?

C What would happen for a soap film covering a glass surface (n = 1.5)? How does this affect the difference in phase?

Give in depth explanation.

A soap bubble is floating in the air. The refractive index of the bubble is n = 1.33. The width of the wall is 115 nm. The light that hits the bubble is reflected on the outer and inner surface and both interfere once they leave. The difference in phase for both for both lights will be wt, where t is the time it takes for the light to go and return through the soap layer (t = d /...

A soap bubble is 95 nm thick and illuminated by white light incident perpendicular to its surface. The longest wavelength in nm which is constructively reflected, assuming soap has the same index of refraction as water (n = 1.33) is equal to 505.4 nm. Draw a diagram of the mediums showing where, if any, a phase change occurs. State whether you are looking for constructive of destructive interference.

Consider red light with a wavelength of 690 nm in air that is incident onto two slits such that it gives diffraction fringes that are 1.00 mm apart on a screen at a distance L from the slits. If the screen is moved back by an additional 8.00 cm, the fringes become 1.40 mm apart. What is the separation between the slits? (a) 0.109 mm, (b) 0.138 mm, (c) 0.177 mm, (d) 0.218 mm, (e) 0.276 mm.
