In a system of two crossed polarisers,it is found that the intensity of light from the second polariser is half of that from the first polariser. The angle between their pass axes is (in $^{\circ}$)

  • A
    $45$
  • B
    $60$
  • C
    $30$
  • D

When an unpolarized light of intensity $I_0$ is incident on a polarizing sheet,the intensity of light which does not get transmitted is

Unpolarised 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?

Two polaroids $A$ and $B$ are placed in such a way that the pass-axis of polaroids are perpendicular to each other. Now,another polaroid $C$ is placed between $A$ and $B$ bisecting the angle between them. If the intensity of unpolarised light is $I_0$,then the intensity of transmitted light after passing through polaroid $B$ will be:
