A very narrow beam of unpolarized red light of intensity To is incident (at A) on a spherical water drop. The angle of incidence is 60. At A, some of the light is reflected and some enters the water drop. The refracted light reaches the surface of the drop at B where some of the light is reflected back into the water, and some emerges into the air. The light that is reflected back into the water reaches the surface of the drop at C where some of the light is reflected back into the drop, and some emerges into the air. Refractive index n of water for the red light is 1.331. Refractive index for air is 1. 600 B(a) What is the intensity of the light that refracts into the drop at A? What is the degree of polarization of the refracted light, i.e. how much of the intensity is spolarized and how much is ppolmized? (b) What is the intensity, and What is the degree of polarization of the light that reects at B? (c) What is the intensity, and what is the degree of polarization of the light that emerges into the air at C"? ((11) Let the angle of incidence at A be 91 and the angle of refraction at A be 92. Express ()5 (see gure) as a function of only 61 and 62
