$n$ polarizing sheets are arranged such that each makes an angle $45^{\circ}$ with the preceding sheet. An unpolarized light of intensity $I$ is incident on this arrangement. The output intensity is found to be $\frac{I}{64}$. The value of $n$ will be:

  • A
    $3$
  • B
    $6$
  • C
    $5$
  • D
    $4$

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

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:

Unpolarized light falls on two polarizing sheets placed one on top of the other. What must be the angle between the characteristic directions of the sheets if the intensity of the final transmitted light is one-third the maximum intensity of the first transmitted beam.......$^o$

The pass-axes of two polarisers were kept such that the incident unpolarised beam of intensity $I_0$ gets completely blocked. Another polariser was introduced in between these two polarisers with its pass-axis at $60^{\circ}$ with respect to the pass-axis of the first one. The output intensity would then become

The figure shows a glass plate placed vertically on a horizontal table. $A$ beam of unpolarised light falls on its surface at the polarising angle of $57^\circ$ with the normal. The electric vector in the reflected light on screen $S$ will vibrate with respect to the plane of incidence in a:
