Question

An unpolarized bearn is incident at an
angle of 60° on a glass surface and after
reflection it is linearly polarized. The
approximate refractive index of the
glass is
(1) 1.4
(2) 1.5
(3)
1.7
(4)
1.6​

Answer 1

Electric field vectors are depicted in the incident light beam as sinusoidal waves ... although only six waves, spaced at 60-degree intervals, are included in the figure). ... glass (refractive index of 1.515), and diamond (refractive index of 2.417), the ... Light reflected from a highway surface at the Brewster angle often produces .
