Answer #1
When incident light falls on the firstPolaroid film, it allows only those vibrations to pass throughwhich are parallel to its own transmission axis. The emerging lighthas vibrations confined to one plane only which is perpendicular tothe transmission axis of the second Polaroid film. Thus no lightwill pass through the second Polaroid film.
