Problem 6 (20 points) A wedge is formed by placing a human hair of thickness 181 um between two glass plates (n = 1.50) on one end, and allowing them to touch on the other end. The wedge is completely submerged in sea water (n = 1.398). This wedge is illuminated with green light (λ = 550 nm in vacuum). How many dark fringes can be observed as you look down on the wedge from above? Round to the nearest whole number.
