Ch 24, problem 44

The drawing shows light incident on a polarizer whose transmission axis is parallel to the z axis. The polarizer is rotated clockwise through an angle α. The average intensity of the incident light is 6 W/m2. Determine the average intensity of the transmitted light for each of the six cases.

Intensity of transmitted light, incident light a = 0°.

1). Unpolarized

2). Polarized parallel to z axis

3). Polarized parallel to y axis

Intensity of transmitted light, incident light a = 35°. 

1). Unpolarized 

2). Polarized parallel to z axis

3). Polarized parallel to y axis
