$A$ light of wavelength $5890 \; \mathring{A}$ falls normally on a thin air film. What is the minimum thickness of the film such that the film appears dark in reflected light?

$A$ ray of light of intensity $I$ is incident on a parallel glass slab at a point $A$ as shown in the figure. It undergoes partial reflection and refraction. At each reflection,$25\%$ of the incident energy is reflected. The rays $AB$ and $A^1B^1$ undergo interference. The ratio $I_{\text{max}} / I_{\text{min}}$ is (in $: 1$)

If prism angle $\alpha = 1^\circ$,refractive index $\mu = 1.54$,distance between screen and prism $b = 0.7\,m$,distance between prism and source $a = 0.3\,m$,and wavelength $\lambda = 180\pi\,nm$,then in a Fresnel biprism,find the value of fringe width $\beta$.

It is necessary to coat a glass lens with a non-reflecting layer. If the wavelength of the light in the coating is $\lambda$,the best choice is a layer of material having an index of refraction between those of glass and air and a thickness of
