Reference no: EM13306574

A transparent oil with index of refraction 1.22 spills on the surface of water (index of refraction 1.33), producing a maximum of reflection with normally incident red light (wavelength 700 nm in air).

Assuming the maximum occurs in the first order, determine the thickness of the oil slick.
