← ScienceWhich outcome follows when uniform plane wave encounters dielectric interface at Brewster's angle?
A)Complete transmission, no reflection✓
B)Maximum reflection, no transmission
C)Partial transmission, phase inversion
D)Standing wave formation, energy accumulation
💡 Explanation
When a plane wave strikes a dielectric interface at Brewster's angle, polarization occurs that cancels out the reflected wave because the reflected and transmitted waves are perpendicular, leading to no reflection. Therefore complete transmission results, rather than other outcomes which require different angle conditions.
