Abeam 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 \(45^{\circ}\) relative to that of \(A\). The intensity of emergent light is :
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(I_0 / 4\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Intensity of emergent light\(=\frac{I_0}{2} \cos ^2 45^{\circ}=\frac{I_0}{4}\)
