To solve the problem of finding the difference in thickness of a thin air film between two points A and B, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: We have a thin air film between two points A and B, and when light of wavelength \( \lambda = 5400 \, \text{Å} \) (angstroms) is used, 5 fringes appear. We need to find the difference in thickness of the film between these two points. 2. **Formula for Thin Film Interference**: For constructive interference in thin films, the condition is given by: \[ ...
