A beam of unpolarised light of intensity \(I_0\) is passed through a polaroid \(A\) and then through another polaroid \(B\) which is oriented so that its principal plane makes an angle of \(45^o \) relative to that of \(A\). The intensity of the emergent light is _______.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\;\frac{{I_o}}{4}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Relation between intensities
\(I_{r}=\left(\frac{I_{0}}{2}\right) \cos ^{2}\left(45^{\circ}\right)=\frac{I_{0}}{2} \times \frac{1}{2}=\frac{I_{0}}{4}\)
