Question

Chapter 27: Problem 6: Unpolarized light of intensity I0 = 950 W/m² is incident upon two polarizers. The first has its polarizing axis vertical, and the axis of the second is rotated θ = 65° from the vertical.

Randomized Variables

I0 = 950 W/m²

θ = 65°

 

Part (a) What is the intensity of the light after it passes through the first polarizer in W/m²? 

Part (b) What is the intensity of the light after it passes through the second polarizer in W/m²?
