The correct option is D Normal light is not polarized but laser is polarized
Normal light is divergent and incoherent whereas laser light is highly directional and coherent. Normal light is a mixture of electromagnetic waves having different wavelengths. Laser light, on the hand, is monochromatic. This is the main difference between Normal light and laser light
