Experience the Phoenix Shot Tower. Built in 1828, it was the tallest building in the US until 1846 and annually manufactured 2.5 million lbs. of “drop” shot. It is only one of three remaining shot towers in the United States.

Electric polarization

Light is the interaction of electric and magnetic fields travelling through space. The electric and magnetic vibrations of a light wave occur perpendicularly to each other. The electric field moves in one direction and the magnetic field in another ‘perpendicular to each other. So, we have one plane occupied by an electric field, another plane of the magnetic field perpendicular to it, and the direction of travel is perpendicular to both. These electric and magnetic vibrations can occur in numerous planes. A light wave that is vibrating in more than one plane is known as unpolarized light. The light emitted by the sun, by a lamp or a tube light are all unpolarised light sources. As you can see in the image below, the direction of propagation is constant, but the planes on which the amplitude occurs are changing.

Transverse waves are waves, in which the movement of the particles in the wave is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave.

***Timed entry; tour duration 60 minutes. Only on Saturday’s and Sunday’s. Each ticket admits one person. For those who wish to book both The Edgar Allan Poe House and Poe Death Exhibit Tours together, please visit this page.***

Polarization oflight

Polarization, in Physics, is defined as a phenomenon caused due to the wave nature of electromagnetic radiation. Sunlight travels through the vacuum to reach the Earth, which is an example of an electromagnetic wave. These waves are called electromagnetic waves because they form when an electric field interacts with a magnetic field. In this article, you will learn about two types of waves, transverse waves and longitudinal waves. You will also learn about polarization and plane polarised light.

Explore 200 years of history at the Carroll Mansion, winter home of Charles Carroll of Carrollton, last living and only Catholic signer of the Declaration of Independence. Follow the mansion’s evolution after Carroll’s death in 1832, into a saloon, immigrant tenement, vocational school, and recreation center.

Lombard Street, or 815 E. Pratt St. Garage. Shot Tower entrance is one block North from the Mansion. This is a ticketed event; timed entry guarantees admission.

A sequential series of 26 iconic illustrations by French artist, Gustave Doré, completed just months before his death. At the exhibit’s center, a striking 20-foot mural by Michael Kirby of Murals of Baltimore depicts Poe’s “ominous bird of yore,” blending classic and contemporary art.

The other kind of wave is a polarized wave. Polarized waves are light waves in which the vibrations occur in a single plane. Plane polarized light consists of waves in which the direction of vibration is the same for all waves. In the image above, you can see that a plane polarized light vibrates on only one plane. The process of transforming unpolarized light into polarized light is known as polarization. The devices like the polarizers you see are used for the polarization of light.

The electric field of light follows an elliptical propagation. The amplitude and phase difference between the two linear components are not equal.

There are two linear components in the electric field of light that are perpendicular to each other such that their amplitudes are equal, but the phase difference is π/2. The propagation of the occurring electric field will be in a circular motion.
