Unpolarized light passes through two ideal Polaroid sheets. The axis of the first is vertical and the axis of the second is at 39.0° to the vertical. What fraction of the incident light is transmitted?
An unpolarized light with an initial intensity of ?0 is incident on two polarizers.What must be the angle between the transmission axes of the two polarizers for the intensity of light to be 3/8 of ?0 after passing through the second polarizer?
The transmission axes of two polarizing sheets are initially parallel.  Through what angle must the second sheet be rotated so that the intensity of the transmitted light is 12.5 % of the intensity of the incident unpolarized light?
