To find the expression for the intensity of transmitted light when a polaroid sheet is rotated between two polaroids, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Setup We have two polaroids: - The first polaroid (P1) is fixed and has an intensity \( I_0 \). - The second polaroid (P2) is rotated at an angle \( \theta \) with respect to the first polaroid. ### Step 2: Apply Malus's Law ...

Define the term 'linearly polarised light'. When does the intensity of transmitted light become maximum, when a polaroid sheet is rotated between two crossed polaroids ?

A mixture of plane polarised and unpolarised light falls normally on a polarising sheet. On rotating the polarising sheet about the direction of the incident beam, the transmitted intensity varies by a factor 4. Find the ratio of the intensities I_(P) and I_(0) respectively of the polarized and unpolarised components in the incident beam. Next the axis of polarising sheet is fixed at an angle of 45^(@) with the direction when the transmitted intensity is maximum. Then obtain the total intensity of the transmitted beam in terms of I_(0) . [(3)/(2),(5I_(0))/(4)]
