MCQ
When light is incident on a doubly refracting crystal, two refracted rays-ordinary ray ($O-$ray) and extra ordinary ray ($E-$ray) are produced. Then
  • A
    Both $O-$ ray and $E-$ ray are polarised perpendicular to the plane of incidence
  • B
    Both $O-$ ray and $E-$ ray are polarised in the plane of incidence
  • C
    $E-$ ray is polarised perpendicular to the plane of incidence and $O-$ ray in the plane of incidence
  • $E-$ ray is polarised in the plane of incidence and $O-$ ray perpendicular to the plane of incidence

Answer

Correct option: D.
$E-$ ray is polarised in the plane of incidence and $O-$ ray perpendicular to the plane of incidence
