Two coherent, monochromatic beams of light are traveling through water. One beam goes through an air bubble of width d. If the two beams are combined after the air bubble, what sort of interference would occur? Take nair = 1, nwater = 1.3, and d = 14 μm. The wavelength of the light in air is λair = 560 nm. Assume that the only difference between the two beams is caused by the air bubble.
