Does a mirror polarize the light?

In: Physics [Edit categories]

Answer:

Polarized light waves are light waves in which the vibrations occur in a single plane. The process of transforming unpolarized light into polarized light is known as polarization. There are a variety of methods of polarizing light. The four methods are :

Polarization by Transmission
Polarization by Reflection
Polarization by Refraction
Polarization by Scattering
