Given below are two statements:
Statement-I: For unpolarized light propagating from air ( 
) into a glass slab with a refractive index of 
, the Brewster's angle is 
.
Statement-II: The phenomenon of complete polarization of reflected light at Brewster's angle occurs because the angle between the reflected and refracted rays is 
.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsA
Brewster's angle ( 
) is given by
Therefore, 
At Brewster's angle, the reflected light is completely polarized, and the reflected ray is perpendicular to the refracted ray.
This means the angle between the reflected and refracted rays is 
.
