What is the longest wavelength λ of light that will exhibit constructive interference at normal incidence? the keratin layers are thin enough that you can think of them as representing the surfaces of a 200-nm "film" of air?

Answer:

560nm

Explanation:

You can use the following expression for thin films:

[tex]\lambda=\frac{2nd}{m}[/tex]

where n is the index of refraction, d is the thicknes of the thin film and m is the order of the diffraction pattern. For keratin layers we can use n=1.40. For the longest wavelenth we use m =1.

Hence, we obtain:

[tex]\lambda=\frac{2(1.40)(200nm)}{1}=560nm[/tex]
