How can you obtain circularly polarized light from linearly polarized light?
Circularly polarized light is obtained by adding two plane polarized lights of same intensity that are orthogonal but with a phase difference of 90 degrees.
Why photodiode works only in reverse bias not in forward bias?
The fractional change due to intensity on minority charge carriers is more than on majority charge carriers. When light is directly polarized it acts like a normal diode but when reverse polarized its current depends on the brightness (intensity of incident light).
Ordinary light waves vibrate in all directions light that vibrates only in a specific plane is said to be?
"polarized"
How do polarized lenses block sunlight?
Polarized lenses block sunlight as light reflected from surfaces such as a flat road or smooth water generally is horizontally polarized. This means that, instead of light being scattered in all directions in more usual ways, reflected light generally travels in a more horizontally oriented direction. This creates an annoying and sometimes dangerous intensity of light that we experience as glare.
What is light passed through a polarized filter?
Such light is said to be polarized.
Do all light bulbs produce polarized light?
No. Light bulbs produce non-polarized light.
What unit to measure intensity?
Intensity of what, exactly - light, magnetic flux, smell? You're going to have to be more specific.
Light that has passed through a polarizing filter is called?
polarized light
Light waves that vibrate in only one plane are called what?
Light waves that vibrate in only one plane are called polarized.
What would an image look like that shows polarized light waves?
Polarized light waves
Differentiate polarized and unpolarized light. Describe two ways by which light can be polarized.?
scattering and by reflection
Why are polarized sunglasses such a good idea?
Polarized lenses are extremely helpful when driving, fishing or any sport where there is metal that could potentially direct a blinding glare into your eyes. Polarized lenses are unique in that they reduce light from glare without decreasing the intensity of your entire line of site; moreover, polarized lenses do not simply block the amount of light reaching your eye-instead, they block harmful reflections and glare while only minimally tinting your vision.
