$A$ polarized light of intensity $I_{0}$ is passed through another polarizer whose pass axis makes an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the pass axis of the former. What is the intensity of emergent polarized light from the second polarizer?

  • A
    $I = I_{0}$
  • B
    $I = I_{0} / 6$
  • C
    $I = I_{0} / 5$
  • D
    $I = I_{0} / 4$

Light passes successively through two polarimeter tubes,each of length $0.29 \ m$. The first tube contains a dextrorotatory solution of concentration $60 \ kg/m^3$ and specific rotation $0.01 \ rad \ m^2/kg$. The second tube contains a laevorotatory solution of concentration $30 \ kg/m^3$ and specific rotation $0.02 \ rad \ m^2/kg$. The net rotation produced is.......$^\circ$.

An unpolarised light of intensity $I$ is passed through two polaroids kept one after the other with their planes parallel to each other. The intensity of light emerging from the second polaroid is $\frac{I}{4}$. The angle between the pass axes of the polaroids is (in $^{\circ}$)

Two polarisers $P_1$ and $P_2$ are placed such that the intensity of the transmitted light is zero. $A$ third polariser $P_3$ is inserted between $P_1$ and $P_2$. If the transmitted intensity of the light passing through all three polarisers is maximum,what is the angle between the polarisers $P_2$ and $P_3$?
