← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when unpolarized light encounters dichroic filter material?
A)Emergent light becomes linearly polarized✓
B)Wavelengths constructively interfere downstream
C)Frequency decreases with higher intensity
D)Refraction concentrates all parallel waves
💡 Explanation
Emergent light is linearly polarized because **selective absorption** attenuates light with electric field vectors perpendicular to the filter's axis; therefore, transmitted light is polarized rather than exhibiting interference or concentration, as dichroism specifically affects polarization.
