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

What is linearly polarised light?

(a) When an unpolarized light of intensity I_(0) is passed through a polaroid , what is the intensity of the linearly polarized light ? Does it depend on the orintation of the polaroid ? Explain your answer. (b) A plane polarized beam of light is passed through a polaroid . Show graphically the variation of the intensity of the transmitted light with angle of rotation of the polaroid in complete one rotation.

Distinguish between unpolarised light and linearly polarised light. How does one get linearly polarised light with the help of a polaroid?
