The polarising angle for water is $53^\circ 4'$. If light is incident at this angle on the surface of water and reflected, the angle of refraction is:

What is the Brewster angle for air to glass transition (in $^{\circ}$)? (Refractive index of glass $= 1.5.)$

Consider a tank made of glass (refractive index $1.5$) with a thick bottom. It is filled with a liquid of refractive index $\mu$. $A$ student finds that,irrespective of what the incident angle $i$ (see figure) is for a beam of light entering the liquid,the light reflected from the liquid-glass interface is never completely polarized. For this to happen,the minimum value of $\mu$ is

An unpolarized light is incident on the plane interface of an air-dielectric medium as shown in the figure. If the incident angle is equal to the Brewster angle, identify the expression representing the reflected wave.

Unpolarised light is incident on the boundary between two dielectric media,whose dielectric constants are $2.8$ (medium $1$) and $6.8$ (medium $2$),respectively. To satisfy the condition that the reflected and refracted rays are perpendicular to each other,the angle of incidence should be $\tan ^{-1}\left(1+\frac{10}{\theta}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$. The value of $\theta$ is $.............$ (Given for dielectric media,$\mu_{r}=1$)
