Question

Three polarizing disks whose planes are parallel and centered on common axis. The directions of their transmission axes relative to the vertical are respectively: θ1 = 37o clockwise, θ2 = 25o counter-clockwise, and θ3 = 18o clockwise. A beam of light polarized along the vertical is incident onto the first polarizer with an intensity of I0 = 36.0 W/m². Calculate the transmitted intensity through all three polarizers.

7. For each of the three sheets of polarizing material shown in the drawing, the orientation of the transmission axis is labeled relative to the vertical. The incident beam of light is unpolarized and has an intensity of 1400 w m. What is the intensity of the beam transmitted through the three sheets when θ 1 = 19.0°, 6)-69.0° and 63-100.0? Transmitted beam Vertical 2 Incident beam
