Q. When unpolarised light beam is incident from air onto glass $(n = 1.5)$ at the polarizing angle

A) Reflected beam is polarized 100 percent
B) Reflected and refracted beams are partially polarized
C) The reason for (a) is that almost all the light is reflected
D) All of the above
Explanation

(a) If unpolarised light is incident at polarising angle, then reflected light is completely, ie, 100% polarized.
