Unpolarised light of intensity `32 W m^(-2)` passes trough three polarisers,such that transmission axis of last polariser is crossed with the first.If intensity of ermerging light is `3W m^(_2)`,what is the angle between the transmission axis of the first two,polarisers?At what angle will the inensity of transmitted light be maximum?
