Q.

Two polaroid A and B are placed in such a way that the pass-axis of polaroids are perpendicular to each other. Now, another polaroid C is placed between A and B bisecting the angle between them. If intensity of unpolarised light is I0 then intensity of transmitted light after passing through polaroid B will be                  [2023]

1 I04  
2 I02  
3 I08  
4 Zero  

Ans.

(3)

IA=I02 and IC=I02cos245=I04

IB=ICcos245=I08
