Q: In which of the following scenarios does light become polarized by reflection?
Solution:
Light becomes polarized by reflection when it reflects off a smooth surface at Brewster's angle.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what polarization means. Polarization is when light waves vibrate in a specific direction.
Step 2: Know that light can be polarized when it reflects off surfaces.
Step 3: Learn about Brewster's angle. This is a specific angle at which light reflects off a surface and becomes polarized.
Step 4: Identify smooth surfaces, like water or glass, where this reflection can happen.
Step 5: Remember that not all angles will cause polarization; it specifically happens at Brewster's angle.
