In Figure, unpolarized light is sent into a system of two polarizing sheets. The angles θ1 and θ2 of the polarizing directions of the sheets are measured counter clockwise from the positive direction of the y axis (they are not drawn to scale in the figure). Angle θ1 is fixed but angle θ2 can be varied. Figure gives the intensity of the light emerging from sheet 2 as a function of 02. (The scale of the intensity axis is not indicated.) What percentage of the light's initial intensity is transmitted by the two-sheet system when θ2 = 90??
