Initially unpolarized light is incident upon two polarizers. These polarizers have their transmission axes oriented at 90.0◦ relative to each other. (i.) If the incident light has an intensity of I=15.0 W/m2 , what is the intensity of the transmitted light (i.e. after the second polarizer)? (ii.) Now, a third polarizer is inserted between the first and second polarizers at 10.0◦ relative to the first. [The original two polarizers don’t move.] What is the intensity of the transmitted light this time? Show all work for both parts of the question.
