Light waves oscillate in the two dimensions perpendicular to it's direction of travel, meaning that they oscillate radially from the centre of the line of travel. Adding a specific filter will cancel out all these oscillations except for in a single plane, whose first axis can be defined as being the direction it is travelling in, and the second being a single line perpendicular to this direction.
Light waves that oscillate only in a single plane are considered polarized. Unpolarized light waves have oscillations occurring in various planes.
The angle between the plane of vibration and the plane of polarization in a plane-polarized electromagnetic wave is 90 degrees. The plane of vibration represents the direction of the electric or magnetic field oscillations, while the plane of polarization is the direction in which these fields propagate. Perpendicular alignment between these two planes ensures the wave remains plane-polarized.
Any transverse waves can be polarised because the vibrations are confined to one plane. Therefore sound can be polarised. Because there is a position when the sounds plane of polarisation is at right angles to the polariser and no waves can pass through. Hope this helped may seem complicated now but believe me it will get easier :)
No, the longitudinal wave can't be polarised. Because polarisation means lack of symmetry. But longitudinal waves are symmetrical from all the sides of vision. This is because their plane of propagation and vibration is same. this wave loks same from all the sides.
The term "smooth" best describes the surface of a plane mirror. Smooth surfaces reflect light in a regular and predictable manner, allowing for clear and accurate reflections.

A polarized light vibrating in a single plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation is called plane polarised light.
Sound waves (in gas, liquid and sometimes in solid) are longitudinal, not transversal. They cannot be polarised. Sound waves (sometimes in solid) are always "polarised" as the medium must move in a single plane perpendicular to the direction of travel.
The laser causes the stimulated emission of radiation. The light emitted is monochromatic and coherent,that is plane polarised. I imagine that spontaneous emission occurs in a Light emitting diode ,monochromatic but not polarised. Hope this is of help

The term air charter usually refers to a private jet or a private airline. The term charter alone is a small plane used to transport only people across the ocean.
The angle between the plane of vibration and the plane of polarization in a plane-polarized electromagnetic wave is 90 degrees. The plane of vibration represents the direction of the electric or magnetic field oscillations, while the plane of polarization is the direction in which these fields propagate.

plane polarised light is being used. A solution of one enantiomer rotates the plane of polarisation in a clockwise direction. This enantiomer is known as the (+) form. A solution of the other enantiomer rotates the plane of polarisation in an anti-clockwise direction. This enantiomer is known as the (-) form. If the solutions are equally concentrated the amount of rotation caused by the two isomers is exactly the same - but in opposite directions. When optically active substances are made in the lab, they often occur as a 50/50 mixture of the two enantiomers. This is known as a racemic mixture or racemate. It has no effect on plane polarised light.
