← ScienceWhich consequence results when birefringent material experiences stress?
A)Stress-induced color patterns form spatially✓
B)Refractive index becomes uniformly isotropic
C)Optical activity is entirely suppressed
D)Scattering efficiency decreases exponentially
💡 Explanation
Stress causes temporary alignment of polymer chains resulting in stress-induced birefringence, consequently altering polarization states depending on stress level; therefore a colored pattern appears rather than uniform isotropy because the refractive index becomes directionally dependent
