← ScienceWhich 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.
