You have explored constructive interference from multi-layer thin films. It is also possible for interference to be destructive, a phenomenon exploited in making antireflection coatings for optical elements such as eyeglasses. In order to allow the lenses to be thinner (and thus lighter weight), eyeglass lenses can be made of a plastic that has a high index of refraction (np = 1.70). The high index causes the plastic to reflect light more effectively than does glass, so it is desirable to reduce the reflection to avoid glare and to allow more light to reach the eye. This can be done by applying a thin coating to the plastic to produce destructive interference. a. Consider a plastic eyeglass lens with a coating of thickness d with index nc . Light with wavelength is incident perpendicular to the lens. If nc < n p , then determine an equation for d in terms of the given variables (and an integer m) in order for there to be destructive interference between the light reflected from the top of the coating and the light reflected from the coating/lens interface.
b. Repeat part a assuming that nc > n p .
c. Choose a suitable value for nc and calculate a value for d that will result in destructive interference for 500 nm light. Note that materials to use for coatings that have nc < 1.3 or nc > 2.5 are difficult to find.
d. Does the index of refraction n p of the eyeglass lens itself matter? Explain.

Acaterpillar tries to climb straight up a wall a meter high, but for every 2 cm up it climbs, it slides down 1 cm. eventually, it reaches the top. when it reaches the top, it does not pull itself over so it will slide down 1 cm. what is the total displacement traveled?
