Question:
A soap bubble is essentially a very thin film of water (n = 1.33) surrounded by air. The colors that you see in soap bubbles are produced by interference.
a. Derive an expression for the wavelengths λC for which constructive interference causes a strong reflection from a soap bubble of thickness d.
b. What visible wavelengths of light are strongly reflected from a 390-nm-thick soap bubble? What color would such a soap bubble appear to be?
