Two polaroide \(A\) and \(B\) are placed in such a way that the pass-axis of polaroids are perpendicular to each other. Now, another polaroid \(C\) is placed between \(A\) and \(B\) bisecting angle between them. If intensity of unpolarised light is \(I _0\) then intensity of transmitted light after passing through polaroid \(B\) will be :
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\frac{I_0}{8}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(I _{ A }=\frac{ I _{ o }}{2}\)
\(I_C =\frac{ I _{\circ}}{2} \cos ^2 45=\frac{ I _{\circ}}{4}\)
\(I _{ B }= I _{ C } \cos ^2 45=\frac{ I _{\circ}}{8}\)
