A thin film of oil (n = 1.4) of thickness 1.4micrometers. is compressed between two glass slabs (n = 1.5).

White light containing wavelengths from 400 to 700nm (measured in air) is incident normally on the film.

In the reflected light, which wavelengths (from long to short)are a) missing (4 of them) and b) enhanced (4 of them)

A thin uniform film of refractive index 1.750 is placed on a sheet of glass with a refractive index 1.50. At room temperature ( 24.0o C), this film is just thick enough for light with a wavelength 582.9 nm reflected off the top of the film to be canceled by light reflected from the top of the glass. After the glass is placed in an oven and slowly heated to 164o C, you find that the film cancels reflected light...
