Light waves can be polarized if they are...

Three linear polarisers are placed coaxially. The transmission axis of the first polariser is at $30^{\circ}$,the second one is at $60^{\circ}$,and the third at $90^{\circ}$ to the vertical,all in the clockwise sense. Each polariser additionally absorbs $10 \%$ of the light. If a vertically polarised beam of light of intensity $I=100 \, W/m^2$ is incident on this assembly of polarisers,then the final intensity of the transmitted light will be close to ................ $W/m^2$.

$A$ system of three polarizers $P_1, P_2, P_3$ is set up such that the pass axis of $P_3$ is crossed with respect to that of $P_1$. The pass axis of $P_2$ is inclined at $60^{\circ}$ to the pass axis of $P_3$. When a beam of unpolarized light of intensity $I_0$ is incident on $P_1$,the intensity of light transmitted by the three polarizers is $I$. The ratio $(I_0/I)$ equals (nearly)

$A$ plane polarized light is incident normally on a tourmaline plate. Its $\vec{E}$ vectors make an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the optic axis of the plate. Find the percentage difference between initial and final intensities. (in $\%$)
