Two polarizers are placed such that the angle between their transmission axes is $60^o$. If unpolarised light of intensity $I_0$ is incident on the first polarizer,then the transmitted intensity from the second polarizer will be

  • A
    $\frac{I_0}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{I_0}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{I_0}{6}$
  • D
    $\frac{I_0}{8}$
