(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.
What is an unpolarized light ? Explian with the help of suitable ray diagram how an unpolarized light can be polarized by reflection from a transparent medium. Write expression for Brewster's angle.
The angle of incidence at which reflected light is totally polarized for reflection from air to glass (refractive index n),
The angle of incidence at which reflected light is totally polarized for reflection from air to glass (refraction index n ) is
The angle of incidence at which reflected light is totally polarized for reflection from air to glass (refraction index n) is
