NEET · Physics · STD 12 - 10. Wave optics
An unpolarised light beam strikes a glass surface at Brewster's angle. Then
- A The refracted light will be completely polarised.
- B Both the reflected and refracted light will be completely polarised.
- C The reflected light will be completely polarised but the refracted light will be partially polarised.
- D The reflected light will be partially polarised.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) The reflected light will be completely polarised but the refracted light will be partially polarised.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
According to Brewster's law, reflected rays are completely polarized and refracted rays are partially polarized.
