A wire loop 22 cm high is dipped in a soap solution (n = 1.33) and then held vertically. It produces a film whose thickness varies from essentially zero at the top to 1.024 μm at the bottom. The film is illuminated with 517 nm light. How far down the loop (as measured from the top) does the bright band number 3 appear?
