A polarized light of intensity I(0) is ...

A polarized light of intensity `I_(0)` is passed through another polarizer whose pass axis makes an angle of `60^(@)` with the pass axis of the former. What is the intensity of polarized light from second polarizer ?

A

`I = I_(0)`

B

`I = I_(0)//6`

C

`I = I_(0)//5`

D

`I_(0)//4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`I = I_(0) cos^(2) theta = I_(0) cos^(2)60 = (I_(0))/(4)`
