Determine the thickness of the oil slick


A transparent oil with index of refraction 1.29 spills on the surface of water (index of refraction 1.33), producing a maximum of reflection with normally incident red light (wavelength 700 nm in air). Assuming the maximum occurs in the first order, determine the thickness of the oil slick.
