(C) Given: Intensity $I_0 = 3.3 \, W m^{-2}$,Area $A = 3 	imes 10^{-4} \, m^2$,Angular speed $\omega = 31.4 \, rad/s$.The intensity of light passing through a rotating polariser is given by Malus' Law: $I(t) = I_0 \cos^2(\omega t)$.The power transmitted at any instant is $P(t) = I(t) 	imes A = I_0 A \cos^2(\omega t)$.The energy $E$ transmitted in one revolution (time period $T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega}$) is the integral of power over the period:$E = \int_{0}^{T} P(t) dt = \int_{0}^{2\pi/\omega} I_0 A \cos^2(\omega t) dt$.Using the average value of $\cos^2(	heta)$ over a full cycle,which is $\frac{1}{2}$:$E = I_0 A 	imes \frac{1}{2} 	imes T = I_0 A 	imes \frac{1}{2} 	imes \frac{2\pi}{\omega} = \frac{I_0 A \pi}{\omega}$.Substituting the values:$E = \frac{3.3 	imes 3 	imes 10^{-4} 	imes 3.14}{31.4} = \frac{3.3 	imes 3 	imes 10^{-4} 	imes 3.14}{10 	imes 3.14} = \frac{9.9 	imes 10^{-4}}{10} = 0.99 	imes 10^{-4} \, J$.Rounding to the nearest integer,$E \approx 1 	imes 10^{-4} \, J$.

Unpolarized light falls on two polarizing sheets placed one after another. What should be the angle between the pass axes of the sheets so that the final transmitted light has one-fourth the intensity of the incident light?

An unpolarized light beam of intensity $I_0$ is incident on a polarizer $A$ and then passed through a second polarizer $B$. If the principal plane of polarizer $B$ makes an angle of $45^\circ$ with respect to polarizer $A$,the intensity of the emerging light will be ........
