PO-1 Unpolarized light with an intensity of 12.0 W/m² is incident on a set of three polarizing filters, as shown in the diagram above. The transmission axis of the first filter is vertical and the second has its transmission axis oriented at an angle of 30.0 degrees with respect to the vertical. (a) At what angle (relative to the vertical) should the third filter be set so that the final transmitted intensity is 1.00 W/m²? (b) Now suppose that the original light is polarized vertically, with an intensity of 12.0 W/m², and the third filter is oriented at an angle of 03 = 60.0 degrees from the vertical. What is the final transmitted intensity, in W/m²? 0₁ = 0° 02= 30.0° 03 = ?
