What is the thickness of the air film at given point

Reference no: EM13978489

Two flat plates of glass, each 8.00 cm long, are in contact at one end and are separated by a piece of paper at the other end, as shown in the figure below. This creates a thin air wedge of variable thickness between the plates. The thickness of the paper is h = 63.5 μm.
