$A$ point source $S$ emits unpolarized light uniformly in all directions. At two points $A$ and $B$,the ratio $r = I_A / I_B$ of the intensities of light is $2$. If a set of two polaroids having $45^{\circ}$ angle between their pass-axes is placed just before point $B$,then the new value of $r$ will be.

    $4$
  • B

$A$ mixture of plane polarised and unpolarised light falls normally on a polarizing sheet. On rotating the polarizing sheet about the direction of the incident beam,the transmitted intensity varies by a factor of $4$.

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 ........
