Which consequence results when the oil film thickness on a wet road interferes with sunlight?

💡 Explanation

Rainbow patterns are generated because **thin film interference** causes varying wavelengths of sunlight to constructively and destructively interfere based on the film's thickness; therefore, color patterns appear, rather than uniform diffuse reflection, due to the specific wavelengths reinforced.
