Learning Goal: To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 33.2 Linear Polarization. Unpolarized light of intensity 20W/cm2 is incident on a linear polarizer set at the polarizing angle theta 1 = 28 degree . The emerging light the passes through a second polarizer that is set at the polarizing angle theta 2 = 142 degree. Note that both polarizing angles are measured from the vertical. What is the intensity of the light that emerges from the second polarizer? The following diagrams show the path of light passing through the two polarizers, whose polarizing axes are represented by blue lines. Each diagram also shows the electrical field vectors of the light incident on and transmitted by each filter. Which of these diagram s accurately represents the polarization of the light incident on and transmitted by each filter. Which of these diagrams accurately represents the polarization of the light at each stage?
