Question:

A plane monochromatic light wave in air is perpendicularly incident on a thin film of oil that covers a glass plate. The wavelength of the source may be varied continuously. Fully destructive interference of the reflected light occurs for wavelengths 500 and 700 nm and for no wavelength in between. The index of refraction of the glass is 1.50. Show that the index of refraction of the oil must be less than 1.50.
