Reference no: EM13303855

A transparent oil with index of refraction 1.16 spills on the surface of water (index of refraction 1.33), producing a maximum of reflection with normally incident orangelight (wavelength 600 nm in air). Assuming the maximum occurs in the first order, determine the thickness of the oil slick.
