Wave Optics

  1. Colours appear on a thin soap film and on soap bubbles due to the phenomenon of
    1. refraction
    2. dispersion
    3. interference
    4. diffraction
Correct Option: C

We know that the colours for which the condition of constructive interference is satisfied are observed in a given region of the film. The path difference between the light waves reaching the eye changes when the position of the eye is changed. Therefore, colours appear on a thin soap film or soap bubbles due to the phenomenon of interference.
