Physics Question on Wave Optics
A light whose electric field vectors are completely removed by using a good polaroid, allowed to incident on the surface of the prism at Brewster’s angle. Choose the most suitable option for the phenomenon related to the prism.
A
Reflected and refracted rays will be perpendicular to each other.
B
Wave will propagate along the surface of prism.
C
No refraction, and there will be total reflection of light.
D
No reflection, and there will be total transmission of light.
Answer
No reflection, and there will be total transmission of light.
Explanation
Solution
The correct option is (D) : No reflection, and there will be total transmission of light.
When electric field vector is completely removed and incident on Brewster’s angle then only refraction takes place.
