An unpolarised light beam strikes a glass surface at Brewster's angle. Then

An unpolarised light beam strikes a glass surface at Brewster's angle. Then
  1. The refracted light will be completely polarised.
  2. Both the reflected and refracted light will be completely polarised.
  3. The reflected light will be completely polarised but the refracted light will be partially polarised.
  4. The reflected light will be partially polarised.

Solution


According to Brewster's law, reflected rays are completely polarized and refracted rays are partially polarized.
