Question

If the light is completely polarized by reflection, then angle between the reflected and refracted light is .

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. Polarized light is a kind of light wave in which the vibrations occur in a single plane.
2. Brewster's law states that the refractive index of the medium is numerically equal to the tangent angle of polarization
3. If reflected light is totally polarised, then the angle between the reflected and the refracted light is$\frac{\pi }{2}$
4. Thus angle made in between the reflected and refracted light is.$\frac{\pi }{2}$

Hence, If the light is completely polarized by reflection, then the angle between the reflected and refracted light is $\frac{\mathrm{\pi }}{2}$
