    A beam of unpolarised light is incident on a glass-air interface. Show, using a suitable ray diagram, that light reflected from the interface is totally polarised, when mu = tan i_B , where mu , is the refractive index of glass with respect to air and i_B is the Brewster’s angle.

    Critical angle of light passing from glass to air is least for

    In the diagram shown, a ray of light is incident on the interface between 1 and 2 at angle slightly greater than critical angle. The light surfers total internal reflection at this interface. After that the light ray falls at the interface of 1 and 3, and again it suffers total internal reflection. Which of the following relations should hold true?

    When light is refracted from air into glass

    Total internal reflection can take place in glass and not in air because glass is:
