To solve the problem, we need to find the angle of refraction when unpolarizing light is incident on the polarizing angle of a medium with a refractive index of \( \sqrt{3} \).
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Identify the Polarizing Angle (IP)**:
The polarizing angle \( IP \) can be calculated using the formula:
\[
\tan(IP) = \mu
