Place the object in an electronic balance and measure its mass.
Place a measured amount of water in the cylinder.
Place the object in the cylinder so that it’s fully submerged.
Measure the new level of the liquid and subtract the original level. This is equal to the volume of the object.
Density = mass / volume.
The percentage of light gets through three successive polarized filters is 24.9 %
From the question,
Given that,
Angle of transmission axis = 32.8°
The intensity of light emerging from the first polarizer is determined by the equation
I₁ = I₀ / 2
where I₀ ⇒ intensity of unpolarized light
The light emerging from the second polarizer can be mathematically represented by,
I₂ = I₁ x cos²θ
Substituting the values,
I₂ =( I₀/2) x cos²θ
= (I₀/2) x cos² (32.8 )
= (I₀/2) x 0.706
= (0.706 / 2 ) x I₀
The light emerging from the third polarizer is represented as,
I₃ = I₂ x cos²θ
Substituting the values in the above equation,
I₃ = ( 0.706 / 2 ) I₀ x cos² (32.8)
= (0.706 / 2 ) I₀ x 0.706
= 0.249 I₀
The percentage of intensity of light that gwts through with respect to the intensity of unpolarized light is given by the equation,
(I₃ / I₀) x 100
Substituting the values
[(0.249 x I₀) / I₀ ] x 100 = 24.9 %
Hence the percentage of light gets through is 24.9%
