Basic Science : Electromagnetic Waves QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS :: part1 : 6 to 10

Following Basic Science multiple choice objective type questions and answers will help you in many types of 2024 job and other entrance examinations :

6.If the refraction index of a medium like glass is µ, the polarizing angle ip is given by

ip = sin-1 (µ)
ip = cos-1 (µ)
ip = tan-1 (µ)
ip = tan µ

7.The property that distinguishes the transverse waves from the longitudinal waves is

reflection
dispersion
polarization
interference

8.Polarization of light by reflection on the surface of glass was discovered by

Bartholinus
Malus
Brewster
Fresnel

9.From Brewster’s law, we find that polarizing angle depends on

the plane of vibration of the beam
the plane of polarization of the beam
the refractive index of the medium
the thickness of the medium

10.On rotating the analyzer, if the rays coming out of it has same intensity, then the incident beam is

plane polarized
partially polarized
un-polarized
polarized
