Light becomes partially polarized as it reflects off nonmetallic surfaces such as glass, water, or a road surface. The polarized light consists of waves that vibrate in a plane ________ (parallel/perpendicular) to the reflecting surface.
the polarized light consists of waves that vibrate in a plane parallel to the reflecting surface.
The polarized light consists of waves that vibrate in a plane parallel to the reflecting surface. The correct option is parallel.
Unpolarized light can be transformed into polarized light. Light waves that are polarized have vibrations that occur in a single plane.
Polarization is the process of converting unpolarized light into polarized light. Polarizing light may be done in a variety of ways.
