The Polarization of Light
The Polarization of Light

... You will have to think about how to separate the input beam from the retro-reblected beam so you can measure its state of polarization. Explain why you see what you saw. Be careful not to drop the cell or put your finger prints on the windows. Play around with a 1/4-wave plate. Assuming the input be ...

... An electric charge can be interpreted as an excess or a deficit of electrons. Charging with an ebonite rod causes an excess of electrons thereby producing a negative electric charge. When illuminated with ultraviolet light the aluminium can discharges, but this is not the case with torch light. It i ...

... varying speed of light. Thus this theory leaves us in an uncomfortable situation. The cause of the time variation of the speed of light, however, has not been discussed in those works; rather it has been introduced as a postulate. Moreover nothing has been found so far from any physical consideratio ...

For this reason, the above answer is technically not correc ...

Thomas Young (scientist)



Thomas Young (13 June 1773 – 10 May 1829) was an English polymath and physician. Young made notable scientific contributions to the fields of vision, light, solid mechanics, energy, physiology, language, musical harmony, and Egyptology. He ""made a number of original and insightful innovations""in the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs (specifically the Rosetta Stone) before Jean-François Champollion eventually expanded on his work. He was mentioned by, among others, William Herschel, Hermann von Helmholtz, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein. Young has been described as ""The Last Man Who Knew Everything"".
