Homework Statement
An unpolarised light beam is shone horizontally through a cubic tank filled
with weakly scattering fluid. Can vertically polarized light leave through the sides that are parallel to the beam’s propagation direction?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
My thinking is that they can. If the fluid is weakly scattering the chances are that a small amount of light would be able to leave through the top sides and that this would have vertically polarised light. Any ideas on how to approach this problem?
