A thin film of oil (\(n=1.45\)) lies on water (\(n=1.33\)) and is illuminated from air at normal incidence. For monochromatic light of wavelength \(\lambda = 600\ \text{nm}\) the film produces a bright fringe of order \(m=3\). (a) Find the minimum thickness \(t\) of the oil film. (b) If the illumination is changed to light of wavelength \(\lambda' = 500\ \text{nm}\) while the film thickness remains the same, what integer order of bright fringe is nearest to being observed?

Answer Options

A. t = 6.5×10⁻⁷ m; nearest bright order for 500 nm = 3
B. t = 7.2×10⁻⁶ m; nearest bright order for 500 nm = 2
Correct Answer C. t = 7.2×10⁻⁷ m; nearest bright order for 500 nm = 4
D. t = 8.0×10⁻⁷ m; nearest bright order for 500 nm = 5
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
t = 7.2×10⁻⁷ m; nearest bright order for 500 nm = 4
