An unpolarized light beam travelling in air is incident on a medium of refractive index \(1.73\) at Brewster's angle. Then:
1. both reflected and transmitted light are perfectly polarized with angles of reflection and refraction close to \(60^\circ\) and \(30^\circ,\) respectively.
2. transmitted light is completely polarized with angle of refraction close to \(30^\circ\)
3. reflected light is completely polarized and the angle of reflection is close to \(60^\circ\)
4. reflected light is partially polarized and the angle of reflection is close to \(30^\circ\)

An unpolarised light beam strikes a glass surface at Brewster's angle. Then:
1. The refracted light will be completely polarised.
2. Both the reflected and refracted light will be completely polarised.
3. The reflected light will be completely polarised but the refracted light will be partially polarised.
4. The reflected light will be partially polarised.

In Young's double slit experiment, if the wavelength of light used is increased (say from violet to red) then the:
1. fringe width decreases.
2. fringe width increases.
3. central bright fringe becomes dark.
4. fringe width remains unaltered.

For Young's double-slit experiment, two statements are given below:
Statement I: If screen is moved away from the plane of slits, angular separation of the fringes remains constant. 
Statement Ii: If the monochromatic source is replaced by another monochromatic source of larger wavelength, the angular separation of fringes decreases.
 
1. Statement I is False but Statement II is True.
2. Both Statement I and Statement II are True.
3. Both Statement I and Statement II are False.
4. Statement I is True but Statement II is False.
