Question: An electromagnetic wave polarized in a diagonal direction ( 4 5 with respect to the horizontal ) and of intensity I 0 = 7 2
An electromagnetic wave polarized in a diagonal direction with respect to the horizontal and of intensity I Wm hits a linear polarizer whose transmission axis is along the vertical. The light leaving it passes through another linear polarizer whose axis is rotated with respect to the horizontal. What intensity will be obtained after the electromagnetic wave passes through both polarizers? If a third polarizer is placed after the first two, in what direction should its transmission axis be placed, with respect to the vertical, so that it lets through only of the light that falls on it
