In the case of linearly polarized light,the magnitude of the electric field vector:

For the study of the helical structure of nucleic acids,the property of electromagnetic radiation generally used is

$A$ beam of unpolarised light of intensity $I_0$ is passed through a polaroid $A$ and then through another polaroid $B$ which is oriented so that its principal plane makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ relative to that of $A$. The intensity of emergent light is:

The relation $I = I_0 \cos^2 \theta$ is known as (where $I_0$ is the intensity of incident light on the analyser,$I$ is the intensity of emergent light from the analyser,and $\theta$ is the angle between the plane of polarization and the axis of the analyser):

Unpolarized light of intensity $I$ is incident on a system of two polarizers,$A$ followed by $B$. The intensity of emergent light is $I/2$. If a third polarizer $C$ is placed between $A$ and $B$,the intensity of emergent light is reduced to $I/3$. The angle between the polarizers $A$ and $C$ is $\theta$. Then:

$A$ polarized light of intensity $I_{0}$ is passed through another polarizer whose pass axis makes an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the pass axis of the former. What is the intensity of emergent polarized light from the second polarizer?
