When unpolarised light beam is incident from air to glass ( =1.5) at the polarising angle,

MHT CET Physics question

When unpolarised light beam is incident from air to glass () at the polarising angle,

(A)Reflected beam is polarised 100 percentCorrect
(B)Reflected and refracted beams are partially polarised
(C)Almost all the light is reflected
(D)The light is refracted

Answer: (A)

Solution

At the polarising angle the reflected beam is completely (100%) plane polarised and the refracted beam is partially polarised, so (b) is wrong; only a
