← ScienceWhich mechanism causes glare reduction in polarized sunglasses?
A)Brewster's angle eliminates reflected light
B)Malus's law attenuates polarized light✓
C)Rayleigh scattering absorbs ambient light
D)Fresnel equations invert unpolarized light
💡 Explanation
Polarized sunglasses reduce glare because Malus's law attenuates horizontally polarized reflected light. Therefore, less glare reaches the eye, rather than Brewster's angle focusing it or Rayleigh scattering contributing like it does in the atmosphere.
