← ScienceWhich outcome follows the placement of crossed polarizers?
A)Suppressed light transmission after polarization✓
B)Increased light intensity and coherence
C)Wave velocity increases significantly
D)Frequency shift due thermal modulation
💡 Explanation
The observed outcome is suppressed light transmission after polarization because orthogonal alignment invokes destructive interference. Thus, amplitude is forced toward to zero, rather than creating constructive effects through additive superposition because incident and reflected waves lack coherent or cooperative mechanisms.
