$A$ 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
    $I = I_{0} / 4$
