What do you understand by polarization of light ? What are plane of polarisztion and plane of vibration ?
Draw a neat labelled diagram showing the plane of vibration and plane of polarisation for polarised light.
In the propagation of polarised light waves, the angle between the plane of vibration and the plane of polarization is
Plane of vibration and plane of polarisation of a beam of light
In the propagation of electromagnetic waves the angle between the direction of propagation and plane of polarisation is
Assertion : If theta is the angle between the planes of transmission of two analysers then the intensity of emergent light is proportional to cos^@ theta . Reason : In the propagation of electromagnetic waves, the angle between the direction of propogation and plane of polarisation is pi/2 .
In a plane polarised electromagnetic wave, the angle between the planes of bivration and polarisation is
What is the angle between the plane of polariser and that of analyser to reduce the transmitted light intensity to half ?
