- ✓Rotates the plane polarised light
- BChanging the direction of polarised light
- CDo not allow plane polarised light to pass through
- DNone of the above
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Rotates the plane polarised light
a
(a)When the plane-polarised light passes through certain substance, the plane of polarisation of the light is rotated about the direction of propagation of light through a certain angle.
