Explanation by: Team MCQ Buddy

It is possible to transform unpolarized light into polarized light. A light wave that is vibrating in more than one plane is referred to as unpolarized light. Polarized light waves are light waves in which the vibrations occur in a single plane. The process of transforming unpolarized light into polarized light is known as polarization.
