(a) Calculate what fraction of the incident Unpolarized light is transmitted by the four polarizer’s.
(b) Can the transmitted light be decreased by removing one of the polarizer’s?
If so, which one?
(c) Can the transmitted light intensity be extinguished by removing polarizer’s? If so, which one(s)?
