(a) How does one demonstrate, using a suitable diagram, that unpolarised light when passed through a Polaroid gets polarised? (b) A beam of unpolarised light is incident a glass-air interface. Show using a suitable ray diagram, that light reflected from the interface is totally polarised, when `mu=tani_(B)`, when `mu` is the refractive index of glass with respect to air and `i_(B)`, is the Brewster's angle.

A beam of unpolarized light is incident on a glass air interface. Show, using a suitable ray diagram that light reflected from the interface is totally polarized by reflection from a transparent medium. Write expression for Brewster's angle.
A ray of unpolarised light is incident on a glass plate of refractive index 1.54 at polarising angle, then angle of refraction is :
Unpolarized light is incident on a plane surface of glass of refractive index mu at angle i . If the reflected light gets totally polarized, write the relation between the angle i and refractive index mu .
When unpolarised light beam is incident from air onto glass ( n=1.5 ) at the polarising angle
Assertion (A) : When an unpolarised light is incident on a glass plate at Brewster angle, the reflected ray and refracted ray mutually perpendicular Reason (R ) : The refractive index of glass is equal to sine of the angle of polarisation.
