Question: 4 Brewster's Angle Light propagating within a medium strikes a flat surface with another medium with incident angle ( theta = 4 5
Brewster's Angle
Light propagating within a medium strikes a flat surface with another medium with incident angle thetacirc The light is partially reflected, resulting in ray # It is then partially transmitted into the second medium, where it later strikes a third medium. The planes separating the media are parallel. The light is then at least partially reflected back you don't know how much, if any, is transmitted into the third medium The reflected light reflected then gets back into the original medium and emerges, resulting in ray # The incident angle theta is now slowly rotated from circ to circ and it is noted that during this process ray # is first totally horizontally polarized, then ray # is totally horizontally polarized later. How should the refractive indexes of the media n n and, n compare with each other?
