A beam of plane polarised light falls normally on a polariser (cross-sectional area `3 xx 10^(-4) m^2`),which rotates about the axis of the ray with an angular velcity of `31.4 rads^(-1)`.Find the energy of light passing through the polariser per revolution and the intensity of emergent beam,if flux of energy of the incident ray is `10^-3)W`.
