As shown in the figure,three identical polaroids $P_1$,$P_2$,and $P_3$ are placed one after another. The pass axis of $P_2$ and $P_3$ are inclined at angles of $60^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$ with respect to the axis of $P_1$. The source $S$ has an intensity of $256 \text{ W/m}^2$. The intensity of light at point $O$ is $........... \text{ W/m}^2$.

The angle between the axes of a polariser and an analyser is $45^{\circ}$. If the intensity of the unpolarized light incident on the polariser is $I$,then the intensity of the light emerged from the analyser is

Choose the correct alternative regarding the polarisation of light.

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 ................ $W/m^2$.
