Answer: Polarization (also polarisation) is a property applying to transverse waves that specifies the geometrical orientation of the oscillations. In a transverse wave, the direction of the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. ... In linear polarization, the fields oscillate in a single direction.

Explanation: Hope this help ;)
