Repeat Problem 76, this time assuming that the polarizers to the left in Figure 25-45 are at an angle of 22.5° to the vertical rather than 45°. The incident intensity is again 55.5 W/m2.
In Figure 25-45
45° Vertically polarized incident beam 90 Transmitted beam Case A 45° Vertically polarized incident beam 0° Transmitt

In Repeat Problem 76,
(a) Rank the three cases, A, B, and C, in order of increasing transmitted intensity. Indicate ties where appropriate.
(b) Calculate the transmitted intensity for each of the cases in Figure 25-45, assuming that the incident intensity is 55.5 W/m2. Verify that your numerical results agree with the rankings in part (a).

45 Vertically polarized incident beam 90 Transmitted beam Case A 45 Vertically polarized incident beam 0 Transmitted beam Case B 45 Vertically polarized incident beam 45 Transmitted beam Case C
