After passing through a polariser,a linearly polarised light of intensity $I$ is incident on an analyser making an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with that of the polariser. The intensity of light emitted from the analyser will be

  • A
    $\frac{I}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{I}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{3I}{4}$
  • D
    $\frac{2I}{3}$

Three linear polarisers are placed coaxially. The transmission axis of the first polariser is at $30^{\circ}$,the second one is at $60^{\circ}$,and the third at $90^{\circ}$ to the vertical,all in the clockwise sense. Each polariser additionally absorbs $10 \%$ of the light. If a vertically polarised beam of light of intensity $I=100 \, W/m^2$ is incident on this assembly of polarisers,then the final intensity of the transmitted light will be close to ................ $W/m^2$.

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 $P_3$?

$A$ beam of unpolarized light passes through a tourmaline crystal $A$ and then it passes through a second tourmaline crystal $B$ oriented so that its principal plane is parallel to that of $A$. The intensity of emergent light is $I_0$. Now $B$ is rotated by $45^{\circ}$ about the ray. The emergent light will have intensity $(\cos 45^{\circ} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})$.

$A$ polarizer and an analyzer are placed such that the intensity of the transmitted light is maximum. If the analyzer is rotated by $60^{\circ}$,find the intensity of the transmitted light.

Two nicols are crossed to each other. Now one of them is rotated through $60^{\circ}$. What percentage of incident light will pass through the system (in $\%$)?
