Two polaroids $A$ and $B$ are placed perpendicularly in the path of a beam of unpolarized light. In between these two,a third polaroid $C$ is placed at an angle of $30^o$ with that of $A$. The percentage of intensity of incident unpolarized light that emerges from $B$ is ........$\%$.

  • A
    $2.8$
  • B
    $9.4$
  • C
    $15.3$
  • D
    $10.2$

Which of the following diagrams represents the variation of the electric field vector magnitude with time for a circularly polarized light?

If a polaroid is kept in the path of uniformly unpolarised light,the ratio of the intensity of the transmitted light to the intensity of the light when the polaroid was not kept in its path is:

Indicate the signals used for unpolarised,polarised,and partially polarised light.

Four polaroids are placed such that the optic axis of each is inclined at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the optic axis of the preceding one. If unpolarised light of intensity $I_0$ falls on the first polaroid,the intensity of light transmitted from the fourth polaroid is $[\cos 30^{\circ} = \sqrt{3} / 2]$.

$A$ mixture of plane polarised and unpolarised light falls normally on a polarizing sheet. On rotating the polarizing sheet about the direction of the incident beam,the transmitted intensity varies by a factor of $4$. Find the ratio of the intensities $I_P$ and $I_0$,respectively of the polarized and unpolarized components in the incident beam.
