Answer:

Green light

Explanation:

The thickness of oil is smaller than wavelength of blue light. The wavelength 450 nm to 495 nm. Let the thickness of oil is 400 nm.

By the constructive interference formula,

2nt = m\lamda\lamda\\λ

2 X 1.28 X 400 X 10^(-9) = 2λ

λ = 512 nm

This is the wavelength of green light.

<span>The de-acceleration or negative acceleration of stopping is what damages bones. The ground is rigid and therefore the change in momentum when striking the ground will be large. On the trampoline, the elasticity of the material means that the momentum changes more slowly, resulting in smaller accelerations.</span>
