To solve the problem of determining which wavelengths in the visible region (400 nm - 700 nm) are strongly reflected by a glass plate, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Condition for Strong Reflection For constructive interference (strong reflection) to occur, the path difference must satisfy the condition: \[ \Delta x = 2t = (2n - 1) \frac{\lambda}{2} \] where: ...
