A process by which the direction of the vibration for rays of light is restricted

Polarization indicates that light is a transverse wave: ✅❌

Most light sources produce unpolarized light: ✅❌

types of polarization:

The electric field of light is confined to single plane along the direction of propagation

The electric field of light consist of two linear components that are perpendicular to each other, equal in amplitude but have a phase different

The electric field of light describe an ellipse, this result from the combination of two linear components with different amplitudes and phase

Wave is always in a single fixed plane

All the vibrating light particles or charges are restricted to a single plane

The process by which the light particles in unpolarized light are made to vibrate in a single plane

The fluctuation in the electric field occur in all direction

Unpolarized light’s intensity is reduced by 50% when passing through a polarizer, regardless of the orientation of the polarizer: ✅❌

It specifically transmit one polarization angle of light

Polarizing filter used to produce polarized light

Polarizing filter used to determine if light is polarized

Also called _______ an optical property in which a single ray of unpolarized light entering a medium is split into two rays

These rays is bent or refracted at an angle as it travels through the medium

These rays passes through the medium unchange

The first clues to the existence of polarized light surface around ____ was found by __________

He discovered that crystal of mineral iceland spar

An optical device made from calcite crystal used to convert ordinary light into plane polarized light

A type of polarizer, an optical device used to generate light beam to polarized light

The phenomenon of scattering of light by colloidal particles when passed through a colloidal solution

this law states that a changing magnetic flux produces an induced emf, and emf is always associated with electric field

this law states that changing electric flux produce a magnetic field
