To solve the problem, we need to establish the relationship between the angle of incidence \( i \) and the refractive index \( \mu \) when unpolarized light is incident on a plane surface of glass and the reflected light is totally polarized. We will use Brewster's Law to derive this relationship. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Setup**: - We have unpolarized light incident on a plane surface of glass with a refractive index \( \mu \). - The angle of incidence is denoted as \( i \). ...
