A beam of light is incident on a glass plate at an angle of . The reflected ray is polarized. If angle of incidence is then angle of refraction is (Given , )

Answer: (A)

Solution

The reflected ray is fully polarized when the angle of incidence equals the Brewster (polarising) angle, so and the refractive index of glass is . For incidence at , Snell's law gives , so $ r = =
