question
For constructive interference to occur, the difference between the two paths must be an integer multiple of the wavelength of the light (as is true in any interference problem), i.e. the general criterion for constructive interference is m?m,constructive=2dm where mm is a positive integer. This is usually stated in the slightly more explicit form ?m,constructive=2d/m Given the thickness of the film, d, what is the longest wavelength ??lambda that can exhibit constructive interference?

question
If you have a thin film of thickness 300 nmnm, what is the third-longest wavelength ?3,constructive?3,constructivelambda_3,constructive of light that exhibits constructive interference with the reflected light? Note that this corresponds to m=3
answer
200 nm
question
The criterion for destructive interference is very similar to the criterion for constructive interference. For destructive interference to occur, the difference between the two paths must be some integer number of wavelengths plus half a wavelength: (m+12)?m,destructive=2d(m+12)?m,destructive=2d, or ?m,destructive=2dm+12 where m is a nonnegative integer. What is the second-longest wavelength ?1,destructive?1,destructivelambda_1,destructive that will not be visible (i.e., will have strong destructive interference for the reflected waves) when reflected from a film of thickness 300 nmnm? Note that the longest wavelength corresponds to m=0m=0 for destructive interference. This is why the notation used for the second-longest wavelength is ?1,destructive?1,destructivelambda_1,destructive instead of ?2,destructive?2,destructivelambda_2,destructive.

400 nm

What is the longest wavelength ??lambda of light that will exhibit constructive interference at normal incidence? The keratin layers are thin enough that you can think of them as representing the surfaces of a 200-nmnm "film" of air.
answer
400 nm
question
The wavelength ??lambda that appears in the interference equations given in Parts B and D represents the wavelength of light within the medium of the film. So far we have assumed that the medium composing the film is air, but many thin-film problems will involve films with an index of refraction different from that of air. Suppose that the butterfly gets wet, thus filling the gaps between the keratin sheets with water (index of refraction n=1.33n=1.33). What wavelength ?0?0lambda_0 in air will be strongly reflected now?
answer
530 nm
question
Several thin films are stacked together in each butterfly wing scale. How would these multiple layers of thin films affect the light reflected by the butterfly's wings?
answer
More 400-nmnm light would be reflected, because some of the light transmitted through the first layer could be reflected by the second layer, light transmitted by the second layer could be reflected by the third, etc.

question
If the angle ??theta in the two-source interference equations is small, then using small-angle approximations yields the equation ym=R(m+1/2)?dym=R(m+1/2)?d, where RRR is the distance from the sources to the points where they are being detected (in Young's experiment the screen, in this example the road), and ymymy_m is the distance from the central maximum to the minimum of order mmm.
