Brewster’s Angle

Data Analysis

Note that there is no least-squares fit in this data analysis.

  1. Show plots of your data from the ‘Exploring Polarization’ section of the Procedure. Use your measurements to explain that the microwaves are indeed linearly polarized.
  2. Show plots of your data from the Brewster’s angle measurements. What value did you determine for Brewster’s angle?  Compare to the accepted value for polyethylene.
