High-quality camera lenses are often coated to prevent reflection. A lens has an optical index of refraction of 1.72 and a coating with an optical index of refraction 1.31. For near normal incidence, the minimum thickness of the coating to prevent reflection for wavelength of 5.3×10−75.3 \times 10^{-7} m is (1) 0.75μm0.75 \mu\text{m} (2) 0.2 mm0.2 \text{ mm} (3) 0.1μm0.1 \mu\text{m} (4) 1.75 mm1.75 \text{ mm}
