To find the minimum thickness of the soap film that produces a dark band corresponding to the wavelength of 6200 Å when white light is incident at an angle of 60°, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the conditions for destructive interference For a soap film, the condition for destructive interference (dark band) in reflected light is given by: \[ 2 \mu t \cos r = \lambda \] where: - \( \mu \) is the refractive index of the film, - \( t \) is the thickness of the film, ...
