A polariod (I) is placed infront of a monochromatic source. Another polariod (II) is placed in front of this polaroid (I) and rotated till no light passes. A third polaroid (III) is now placed in between (I) and (II). In this case, wil light emerge from (II) . Explain.

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the behavior of light as it passes through the three polaroids (I, II, and III) in the given arrangement. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Unpolarized Light**: - A monochromatic source emits unpolarized light, which consists of waves vibrating in multiple planes. 2. **First Polaroid (I)**: ...

Two polaroids A and B are parallel. How a third Polaroid C be placed between A and B so that the intensity of the emergent light be (A) zero (B) maximum?

Explain with diagram, how plane polarized light can be produced by scattering of sunlight . An incident beam of light of intensity I_(0) is made to fall on a polaroid A. Another polaraid B is so oriented with respect to A that there is no light emerging out of B. A third polaroid C is now introduced mid-way between A and B is so oriented that its axis bisects that angle between the axes of A and B. Calculate the intensity of light transmitted by A,B and C.

A polaroid is placed at 45^(@) to an incoming light of intensity I_(0) Now, the intensity of light passing through polaroid after polarization would be

Why is lead placed in group I as well in II?

Two polaroids are placed in the path of unpolarized beam of intensity I_(0) such that no light is emitted from the second polarid. If a third polaroid whose polarization axis makes an angle theta with the polarization axis of first polaroid, is placed between these two polariods then the intensity of light emerging from the last polaroid will be

Two polaroids P_(1)" and "P_(2) are placed with their axis perpendicular to each other. Unpolarised light I_(0) is incident of P_1 . A third polaroid P_3 is kept in between P_(1)" and "P_(2) such that its axis makes an angle 45^(@) with that of P_(1) . The intensity of transmitted light through P_(2) is :

(a) Using the phenomenon of polarization, show, how, transverse nature of light can be demonstrated. (b) Two polaroids P_(1) and P_(2) are placed with their pass axes perpendicular to each other. Unpolarised light of intensity 10 is incident on P1. A third polaroid P3 is kept in between P_(1) and P_(2) such that its pass axis makes an angle of 30^(@) with that of P_(1) . Determine the intensity transmitted through P_(1),P_(2) and P_(3) .

Two 'crossed' polaroids A and B are placed in the path of a light-beam. In between these, a third polaroid is C is placed whose polarisation axis makes an angle theta with a polarisation axis of the polaroid A. If the intensity of light emerging from the polaroid a is I_(o) then the intensity of light emerging from polaroid B will be

Unpolarised light of intensity I is passed through a polaroid. What is the intensity of emerging polaroised light ?

Unpolarised light of intensity I passes through an ideal polariser A. Another identical polariser B is placed behind A. The intensity of light beyond B is found to be (I)/(2) . Now another identical polariser C is placed between A and B. The intensity beyond B is now found to be (I)/(8) . the angle between polariser A and C is
