    When the angle of incidence on a material is \[\text{6}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{,}\] the reflected light is completely polarized. The velocity of the refracted ray inside the material is (in \[\text{m}{{\text{s}}^{-1}}\])

    A)  \[3\times {{10}^{8}}\]

    B)  \[\left[ \frac{3}{\sqrt{2}} \right]\times {{10}^{8}}\]

    C)  \[\sqrt{3}\times {{10}^{8}}\]

    D)  \[0.5\times {{10}^{8}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     From Brewstefs law,\[\mu =\tan {{i}_{p}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{c}{v}=\tan {{60}^{o}}=\sqrt{3}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[v=\frac{c}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{3\times {{10}^{8}}}{\sqrt{3}}\] \[=\sqrt{3}\times {{10}^{8}}\,m/s\]
