The angle between a polarizer and an analyzer is $60^o$. If light with an amplitude $A$ is incident on the polarizer,what is the amplitude of the light emerging from the analyzer?

$A$ system of three polarizers $P_1, P_2, P_3$ is set up such that the pass axis of $P_3$ is crossed with respect to that of $P_1$. The pass axis of $P_2$ is inclined at $60^{\circ}$ to the pass axis of $P_3$. When a beam of unpolarized light of intensity $I_0$ is incident on $P_1$,the intensity of light transmitted by the three polarizers is $I$. The ratio $(I_0/I)$ equals (nearly)

In the figure,suppose the transmission axes of the left and right polarizing disks are perpendicular to each other. Also,let the center disk be rotated on the common axis with an angular speed $\omega$. If unpolarized light is incident on the left disk with an intensity $I_{max}$,the intensity of the beam emerging from the right disk is given by:

View Solution

An unpolarized light of certain intensity passes through a combination of two polarizers whose transmission axes are at $30^\circ$ and $90^\circ$, respectively, with respect to the horizontal axis. $A$ third polarizer with its transmission axis at $60^\circ$ with the horizontal axis is placed between the two existing polarizers. The ratio of the output intensities with and without the third polarizer is . . . . . . .
