35) The fact that light can be polarized means which of the following:
a) Light behaves like a transverse wave
b) Light behaves like a longitudinal wave
c) Light does not behave like a wave because it propagates in a vacuum
36) What does a beam of unpolarized light lose after passing through one polarizer?
a) One-half of its intensity
b) One-quarter of its intensity
c) No intensity, as it was not polarized before
37) A beam of unpolarized light of intensity I0 passes through one polarizer and then a second polarizer oriented at an angle of 70 deg relative to the axis of the first. What is the intensity of light after the second polarizer?
38) If the amplitude of an E field in a linearly polarized wave doubles, what will happen to the energy density of the wave?
a) It will double
b) It will quadruple
c) Not enough information to answer.
39) Brewster's law:
a) Explains polarization upon reflection.
b) Explains how polarizing sunglasses help reduce glare.
c) Relates the incident polarizing angle to the indexes of refraction of the medium the light travels in and the medium it reflects off of.
d) Only A and C.
e) All of the above are correct.
