MCQ
Light transmitted by nicol prism is:
  • A
    Unpolarised
  • Plane polarised
  • C
    Circular polarised
  • D
    Elliptically polarised

Answer

Correct option: B.
Plane polarised
Nicol prism is a polariser in which the $O-$ray is eliminated by total internal reflection and the light transmitted through it, is $E-$ray which is completely plane polarised light.
