MCQ

The angle of incidence at which reflected light is totally polarized for reflection from air to glass (refraction index $n$) is

A
${\sin ^{ - 1}}(n)$
B
${\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{1}{n}} \right)$
C
${\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{1}{n}} \right)$
✓
${\tan ^{ - 1}}(n)$

✓

Answer

Correct option: D.

${\tan ^{ - 1}}(n)$

d
$\mu = tan$ $\theta$$_P$ ==> $\theta$$_P$ $ = tan^{-1} n$
