A beam of unpolarised light with intensity I0 falls first upon a polarizer with transmission axis ?TA,1, then upon a second polarizer with transmission axis ?TA,2, where ?TA,2 – ?TA,1 = 90 degrees (in other words the two axes are perpendicular to one another).
a. What is the intensity I2 of the light beam emerging from the second polarizer? Show your working.
Now a third polarizer (Polarizer A in the figure below), whose transmission axis is offset 45 degrees from each of the others, is inserted between the original two polarizers.
b. What is the new intensity I2 of the light emerging from the final polarizer?
a)
using malus law
the intensity I can be taken as
\(\mathrm{I}=\mathrm{I}_{0} \cos ^{2}(\theta)\)
OTA,
\(2-\theta T A\)
\(1=90\)
here given
\(\theta=90^{\circ}\)
\(I_{2}=I_{0} X \cos (90)\)
\(I_{2}=0\)
the fianl intensity is \(I_{2}=0\)
b)
for the third polarizer given is
\(\theta=45^{\circ}\)
again considering the malus law
\(I_{2}=I_{0} \cos ^{2} 45\)
\(I_{2}=I_{0} \times 0.5\)
\(I_{2}=I_{0} / 2\)

To understand polarization of light and how to use Malus's law to calculate the intensity of a beam of light after passing through one or more polarizing filters. The two transverse waves shown in the figure(Figure 1) both travel in the +z direction. The waves differ in that the top wave oscillates horizontally and the bottom wave oscillates vertically. The direction of oscillation of a wave is called the polarization of the wave. The upper wave is described as polarized...
law: I = I0 cos²θ where I0 is the intensity of the polarized light beam just before entering the polarizer, I is the intensity of the transmitted light beam immediately after passing through the polarizer, and is the angular difference between the polarization angle of the incident beam and the transmission axis of the polarizer. After passing through the polarizer, the transmitted light is polarized in the direction of the transmission axis of the polarizing filter. Part DOne way to produce a beam of polarized...
