When exposed to sunlight,thin films of oil on water often exhibit brilliant colours due to the phenomenon of

In a Fresnel biprism experiment,the eyepiece is placed at a distance of $120 \, cm$ from the source. The distance between the two virtual images is found to be $0.075 \, cm$. If the eyepiece is moved by $1.92 \, cm$ to cross $20$ fringes in the field of view,what is the wavelength of light in $\mathop A\limits^o$?

White light may be considered to be a mixture of waves with $\lambda$ ranging between $3900\ \mathring A$ and $7800\ \mathring A$. An oil film of thickness $10,000\ \mathring A$ is examined normally by reflected light. If $\mu = 1.4$,then the film appears bright for

Light is incident on a glass plate $(\mu = 1.5)$ such that the angle of refraction is $60^\circ$. $A$ dark band is observed corresponding to a wavelength of $6000 \, \mathring A$. If the thickness of the glass plate is $1.2 \times 10^{-3} \, mm$,find the order of the interference band.

$A$ thin slice is cut out of a glass cylinder along a plane parallel to its axis. The slice is placed on a flat glass plate with the curved surface downwards. Monochromatic light is incident normally from the top. The observed interference fringes from this combination do not follow one of the following statements.

In a biprism experiment, a steady interference pattern is observed on the screen kept at a distance of $100 \text{ cm}$ using a light of wavelength $5000 \text{ Å}$. Without changing the distance between the virtual sources of the slit, the source of light is replaced by a source of wavelength $6400 \text{ Å}$. Now, to reduce the fringe width by $20\%$ of its initial value, the screen should be moved
