This solution discusses the use of polarized thinking.

Solution Preview

The main issue with polarized thinking is that there is no compromise. This is not an effective method of thinking in most organizations. The polarized thinker does not take the opinions of others into consideration, to the extent that s/he should. Polarized thinkers always ...

  • Leadership: Productive Thinking

    One common unproductive thinking habit I have noticed is polarized thinking. That is, all-or-none or "yes/no" thinking. This mindset reduces the decision down to "go" or "no go" without fully exploring all the options.

  • Polarization of light on reflection

    Refracted ray (un-polarized) When un-polarized light is reflected from a surface, the reflected light may be un-polarized, partially polarized or completely polarized depending upon the angle of incidence.

    128039 Stoke's Vector Problem: Polarized Light A light beam has a Stoke's vector of S = (1, 0.4, 0.2, 0). What is the Degree of Polarization? Would you characterize the light as linearly polarized or circularly polarized?

  • Polarization of light

    Such a beam of light which has E vectors only in one orientation is known as "polarized". When an un-polarized beam of light is passed through a polarizer, the intensity of the polarized beam is half of that of the un-polarized beam.

  • Physical Optics Questions

    The transmitted beam is: (a) nonexistent (b) linearly polarized in the plane-of-incidence (c) linearly polarized perpendicular to the plane-of-incidence (d) partially polarized (e) none of these. Explain your choice. 2.

  • Compounds rotating polarized light, product reactions, and carbocation intermediates

    A has no chiral centre as there two equal substituents-CH3, so it does not rotate plane polarized light. D is a racemic mixture and does not rotate plane polarized light. 9.

  • Optics: wave-plates and Faraday effect

    Unlike the half-wave plate, the Faraday Effect produces light that is not so completely linearly polarized, but is somewhat elliptically polarized.

  • Birefringent Materials Optic Axis

    They are plane polarized in mutually perpendicular planes as usual. It is easy to produce linearly (or plane polarized) polarized light from a birefringent material.

  • Intensity transmitted by the other polarizing eye of the spider

    Solution: As per Malu's law the intensity of plane polarized light transmitted through a polarizer is given by : I' = Icos2θ ..........(1) where θ is the angle between the orientation of the polarized light and plane of polarization of the polarizer
