Question: Three polarizers are stacked , normal to a central axis, along which is incident a beam of unpolarized light of intensity Io . The first

Three polarizers are stacked , normal to a central axis, along which is incident a beam of unpolarized light of intensity Io . The first and the third polarizers are perpendicular to each other and the middle polarizer is rotated at an angular frequency \omega about the central axis (light beam). The time dependent intensity of light emerging after the third polarizer will be a. I(t)= Io 16(1 cos4\omega t) b. I(t)= Io 8(1 cos2\omega t)
