Figure Q23.20 shows linearly polarized light striking a polarizer, with different angles between the incoming electric field
Question:
Figure Q23.20 shows linearly polarized light striking a polarizer, with different angles between the incoming electric field Ein(vector) and the polarizer axis. Is there a force on the polarizer due to the incoming light? If so, what is the direction of the force and in which case is the magnitude of the force largest? Explain.
