Which outcome occurs when ambient light reflects off Brewster's angle?

A)Perfect polarization of reflected light
B)Total internal reflection decreases rapidly
C)Diffraction fringes become highly visible
D)Refraction causes beam spectrum broadening

💡 Explanation

The reflected light is perfectly polarized because only light with its electric field vector perpendicular to the plane of incidence is reflected; this is Brewster's angle polarization, therefore, complete polarization occurs rather than partial, since the transmission coefficient for parallel polarized light reaches zero.
