    The transverse nature of light is shown by

    A)  interference of light

    B)  diffraction of light

    C)  polarization

    D)  radiation spectrum of black body

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    A light wave is an electromagnetic wave which travels through the vacuum of outer space. Also, an electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave which has both an electric and magnetic component. The property of transverse nature of light is shown by polarisation. Polarization is the process of transforming unpolarised light (in which light wave is vibrating in more than one plane) to polarised light (in which the vibrations occur in a single plane).
