When unpolarised light is passed through crossed polaroids, then light passing
through first polaroid
- A also passes through second polaroid.
- B partially passes through second polaroid.
- C is blocked by second polaroid.
- D passes with greater intensity.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) is blocked by second polaroid.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Intensity passed by the second polaroid is given by \(I=I_{0} \cos ^{2} \theta\) when \(\theta=90^{\circ}, I=0\)
