Question

The angle of incidence of light is equal to Brewster's angle, then
A) Reflected ray is perpendicular to refracted ray
B) Reflected ray is parallel to refracted ray
C) Reflected light is polarized having its electric vector in the plane of incidence
D) Refracted light is polarized.

• A. [A] and [D] are true
• B. [A] and [B] are true
• C. [A] and [C] are true
• D. [B] and [C] are true

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

From Brewer?s law reflected ray is perpendicular to refracted ray.
The reflected ray so obtained is plane polarized having its electric vector in the plane of incidence,
