When unpolarised light beam is incident from air onto glass at the polarizing angle |
|
a) |
Reflected beam is polarized 100 percent |
b) |
Reflected and refracted beams are partially polarized |
c) |
The reason for (a) is that almost all the light is reflected |
d) |
All of the above |

All of the above |
(a) According to Brewster’s law, when a beam of ordinary light ( unpolarised) is reflected from a transparent medium (like glass), the reflected light is completely plane polarized at certain angle of incidence called the angle of polarization |
