Unpolarized light passes through two Polaroid sheets. The transmission axis of the analyzer makes an angle of 40.0° with the axis of the polarizer. (b) What fraction of the original light is absorbed by the analyzer (the second polarizer)? (that is find (I adsorbed/ I incident on the first polarizer))
The intensity of the transmitted light after the first polarizer is
And the intensity of the transmitted light after the second polarizer is
Therefore the intensity absorbed by the second polarizer is
Now,
The fraction of the original light absorbed by the second polarizer is
So, the final answer is 0.2066.

Unpolarized light passes through two polarizers whose transmission axes are at an angle of 25.0 ∘ with respect to each other. What fraction of the incident intensity is transmitted through the polarizers? I/I0 equals:
When a beam of light passes through a pair of polarizing filters (polarizer and analyzer), the intensity of the transmitted light is a maximum when the transmission axes of the polarizer and analyzer are parallel to each other (θ = 0° or θ= 180°) and zero when the axes are perpendicular to each other (θ = 90°). For any value of theta between 0° and 90° the transmitted intensity is given by I = Ii cos2(θ) where Ii is the...
