The light intensity emerging from the second polarizing filter.
Answer to Problem 10STP
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Initial intensity of the nonpolarized light is
Formula used:
Malus’s Law: Light’s intensity out of a polarizing filter
Where
Calculation:
Now, the light coming out of the first polarizing filter will be,
Now, the light of above intensity enters the second polarizing filter. Then, the intensity of the light emerging from the second polarizing filter will be,
Conclusion:
Hence, the intensity of the light emerging from the second polarizing filter is
