Two polarizing sheets have their transmission axes crossed so that no light gets through. A third sheet is inserted between the
first two so that its transmission axis makes an angle θ with the transmission axis of the first sheet. Unpolarized light of intensity I0 is incident on the first sheet. Suppose that the middle sheet is replaced by two polarizing sheets. The angles between the transmission axes of the second, third and fourth sheets in the stack make angles of 30°, 60°, and 90°, respectively, with the transmission axis of the first sheet.
(a) What is the intensity of the transmitted light? (Use the following as necessary: I0.)
I4 =
(b) How does this intensity compare with the intensity obtained using the original single middle sheet?choose the right answer...
1-The intensity with four sheets is the same as the intensity with three sheets.
2-The intensity with four sheets is less than the intensity with three sheets.
3-The intensity with four sheets is greater than the intensity with three sheets.
