Light passes successively through two polarimeter tubes,each of length $0.29 \ m$. The first tube contains a dextrorotatory solution of concentration $60 \ kg/m^3$ and specific rotation $0.01 \ rad \ m^2/kg$. The second tube contains a laevorotatory solution of concentration $30 \ kg/m^3$ and specific rotation $0.02 \ rad \ m^2/kg$. The net rotation produced is.......$^\circ$.

$A$ beam of plane polarised light of large cross-sectional area and uniform intensity of $3.3 \, W m^{-2}$ falls normally on a polariser (cross-sectional area $3 \times 10^{-4} \, m^2$) which rotates about its axis with an angular speed of $31.4 \, rad/s$. The energy of light passing through the polariser per revolution is close to ........ $\times 10^{-4} \, J$.
