Which mechanism causes reduced visibility when polarized sunglasses filter reflected light?

A)Brewster angle polarization
B)Chromatic dispersion effects
C)Rayleigh scattering dominates
D)Thin-film interference occurs

💡 Explanation

Brewster angle polarization causes reflected light from surfaces to be partially polarized; therefore, sunglasses with polarizing filters block this glare because the reflected light's polarization direction matches the filter’s orientation, rather than other scattering/interference phenomena.
