Polarization of light is a phenomenon that supports

The correct answer is option 3) i.e. Wave nature of light

CONCEPT:

• A wave is an oscillation that carries energy from one place to another without transporting matter.
• Light is a combination of electric fields and magnetic fields that are perpendicular to each other.
  • So, the two perpendicular planes are occupied by these fields. The electric and magnetic vibrations can simultaneously occur in a number of perpendicular planes. 
  • Therefore, light is an electromagnetic wave. 
  • A wave that oscillates in many numbers planes is called an unpolarized wave.
  • Using devices called polarizers, light can be made to vibrate along a single plane. Such light waves are called polarized light.
  • Polarization of light occurs when light is reflected, refracted, and scattered. 

​EXPLANATION:

• The direction of vibration of particles is a property associated with waves. Since light shows the vibration of the electric and magnetic field through polarization, the wave nature of light can be supported by polarization.
