What is the Brewster angle for air to glass transition? (Refractive index of glass = 1.5)
उत्तर
Refractive index of glass, μ = 1.5
Brewster angle = θ
Brewster angle is related to refractive index as:
tan θ = μ
θ = tan−1 (1.5) = 56.31°
Therefore, the Brewster angle for air to glass transition is 56.31°.

To ensure almost 100 per cent transmissivity, photographic lenses are often coated with a thin layer of dielectric material. The refractive index of this material is intermediated between that of air and glass (which makes the optical element of the lens). A typically used dielectric film is MgF2 (n = 1.38). What should the thickness of the film be so that at the center of the visible spectrum (5500 Å) there is maximum transmission.
A polarizer - analyser set is adjusted such that the intensity of light coming out of the analyser is just 10% of the original intensity.
