GOAL Understand how polarizing materials affect light intensity. Unpolarized light is incident upon three polarizers. The first polarizer has a vertical transmission axis, the second has a transmission axis rotated 30.0 degree with respect to the first, and the third has a transmission axis rotated 75.0 degree relative to the first. If the initial light intensity of the beam is I_b, calculate the light intensity after the beam passes through the second polarizer and the third polarizer. After the beam...
