The wave property of electrons implies that they will show diffraction effects. Davisson and Germer demonstrated this by diffracting electrons from crystals. The law governing the diffraction from a crystal is obtained by requiring that electron waves reflected from the planes of atoms in a crystal interfere constructively. Which of the following phenomena establishes the transverse nature of light?

  • A
    Interference of light
  • B
    Refraction of light
  • C
    Polarisation of light
  • D
    Dispersion of light

Through which characteristic can we distinguish light waves from sound waves?

$A$ beam of light of intensity $I_0$ falls on a system of three polaroids which are arranged in succession such that the pass (transmission) axis is turned through $60^{\circ}$ with respect to the preceding one. The fraction of the incident light intensity that passes through the system is $\left(\cos 60^{\circ} = 1/2\right)$.

Two polaroids $A$ and $B$ are placed perpendicularly in the path of a beam of unpolarized light. In between these two,a third polaroid $C$ is placed at an angle of $30^o$ with that of $A$. The percentage of intensity of incident unpolarized light that emerges from $B$ is ........$\%$.
