Evaluate the thickness of the oil slick

Reference no: EM13521304

A transparent oil with index of refraction 1.28 spills on the surface of water (index of refraction 1.33), producing a maximum of reflection with normally incident green light (wavelength 500 nm in air). Assuming the maximum occurs in the first order, determine the thickness of the oil slick.
