It is necessary to coat a glass lens with a non-reflecting layer. If the wavelength of the light in the coating is $\lambda$,the best choice is a layer of material having an index of refraction between those of glass and air and a thickness of

$A$ thin transparent film with refractive index $1.4$ is held on a circular ring of radius $1.8 \ cm$. The fluid in the film evaporates such that transmission through the film at wavelength $560 \ nm$ goes to a minimum every $12 \ seconds$. Assuming that the film is flat on its two sides, the rate of evaporation is . . . . . . $\pi \times 10^{-13} \ m^3/s$.

$A$ thin film of soap solution $(n = 1.4)$ lies on the top of a glass plate $(n = 1.5)$. When visible light is incident almost normal to the plate,two adjacent reflection maxima are observed at two wavelengths $420 \ nm$ and $630 \ nm$. The minimum thickness of the soap solution is.....$nm$

$A$ transparent film of refractive index $2.0$ is coated on a glass slab of refractive index $1.45$. What is the minimum thickness of the transparent film to be coated for the maximum transmission of green light of wavelength $550 \ \text{nm}$ (in $\text{nm}$)? [Assume that the light is incident nearly perpendicular to the glass surface.]

What is the shape of the interference fringes formed on the screen due to a point source $P$,in the case shown here?

Calculate the minimum thickness of a soap film $(n=1.33)$ that results in constructive interference in reflected light, if the film is illuminated with light whose wavelength in free space is $532 \,nm$. (in $\,nm$)
