Which plane is defined as the plane of polarization in a plane-polarized electromagnetic wave?(a) The plane containing the direction of propagation of light(b) The plane containing the direction of reflective wave(c) The plane containing the direction of refractive wave(d) The plane containing the direction of dispersive waveThis question was addressed to me in examination.I'd like to ask this question from Wave Optics in portion Wave Optics of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

Right choice is (a) The PLANE containing the direction of propagation of light

Easy explanation: The plane containing the direction of propagation of light and perpendicular to the plane of VIBRATION is called the plane of polarization. It contains no VIBRATIONS. POLARIZED light waves are light waves in which the vibrations OCCUR in a single plane.
