← ScienceWhich consequence results when dissimilar oil films produce overlapping waves?
A)Destructive interference cancels reflections✓
B)Refractive index stabilizes the layer
C)Surface tension homogenizes viscosity
D)Viscous damping eliminates all motion
💡 Explanation
When irregular oil films allow phase shifts between light waves, destructive interference occurs at certain wavelengths because of the differing path lengths. Therefore specific colors cancel each other out, rather than showing all colors constructively.
