A beam of light is passed through a polaroid and the latter is rotated with the beam of light as axis. The intensity of the emergent light varies between a maximum and a minimum. Then the light used is

Unpolarized light of intensity 32 W//m^2 is incident on the combination of three polaroids. The first and last polaroids are crossed. If the intensity of the light transmitted through the combination be 3 W//m^2 , then what is the angle between the transmission axes of first two polaroids ?
