← ScienceWhich consequence results when perpendicularly aligned polarizing films are illuminated?
A)Total light intensity approaches zero✓
B)Refraction angle approaches ninety degrees
C)Wavelength distribution becomes increasingly broadband
D)Polarization plane rotates by forty-five degrees
💡 Explanation
Extinction of light occurs, because Malus's law dictates the transmitted intensity reduces by cos²θ; therefore, light is blocked, rather than allowing light that changes wavelength or polarization under perpendicular filters.
