Wave Optics Question 12
Question 12 - 2024 (31 Jan Shift 2)
When unpolarized light is incident at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ on a transparent medium from air. The reflected ray is completely polarized. The angle of refraction in the medium is
(1) $30^{\circ}$
(2) $60^{\circ}$
(3) $90^{\circ}$
(4) $45^{0}$
Show Answer
Answer: (1)
Solution:
By Brewster’s law
At complete reflection refracted ray and reflected ray are perpendicular.
