What is polarisation of light ? Name any one method of producing plane polarised light.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The phenomenon of confining the vibrations of the electric vector in a specific direction perpendicular to the direction of wave motion is called polarisation, The method of producing plane polarised light is reflection The other methods are by refraction, double refraction, scattering and selective absorption.
