These are the options from the practice homework in book. I'm confused bc they're not alligning. Any insight? Thanks. -None of it. This first only lets vertically polarized light through. the second only let horizontally polarized light through. -All of it. Since the two polarizers aren't aligned with each other, they don't affect the light. -One quarter. Each polarizer reduces the light by half. Half of half is one quarter. -70.7%. The combination of the two polarizers (one at 0 and the other at 90) is 45. Cos(45)=.707.
