Two circularly shaped linear polarisers ...

Two circularly shaped linear polarisers are placed coaxially. The transmission axis of the first polarizer is at `30^(@)` from the vertical while the second one is at `60^(@)`, both in the clockwise sense. If an unpolarised beam of light of intensity `I = 20 W//m^(2)` is incident on this pair of polarisers, then the intensities `I_(1)` and `I_(2)` transmitted by the first and the second polarisers, respectively, will be close to

A

`I_(1) = 10.0 W//m^(2)" and "I_(2) = 7.5 W//m^(2)`

B

`I_(1) = 20.0 W//m^(2)" and "I_(2) = 15 W//m^(2)`

C

`I_(1) = 10.0 W//m^(2)" and "I_(2) = 8.6 W//m^(2)`

D

`I_(1) = 15.0 W//m^(2)" and "I_(2) = 0.0 W//m^(2)`

Three circularly shaped linear polarisers are placed coaxially. The transmission axis of the first polariser is at 30^(@) , the second one is at 60^(@) and the third at 90^(@) 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

Two polaroids are crossed. If one of them is rotated through 30^(@) and unpolarised light of intensity l_(0) is incident on the first polaroid, then the intensity of transmitted light will be

When an unpolarized light of intensity I_(0) is incident on a polarizing sheet, the intensity of the light which does not get transmitted is

Two polaroids are placed such that their planes are parallel to each other with their access of transmission at 30°. If an unpolarised light of intensity I_0 is incident on first polaroid polarizer then intensity of light that will be transmitted through the second polaroid is

Two polaroids are crossed. If now one of them is rotated through 30^(@) and unpolarised light of intensity l_(0) is incident on the first polaroid, then the intensity of transmitted light will be

An unpolarised beam of intensity I_(0) is incident on a pair of nicols making an angle of 60^(@) with each other. The intensity of light emerging from the pair is
